Leading by Example to Reform Harrisburg

Ryan has fought for real reform to ensure open and transparent government, and save taxpayers money.

Saying “No” to Costly Perks
Just like he promised, Ryan refused a taxpayer-paid car, cell phone and per diems.  He also posts his legislative expenses on-line for public review.

Making Legislators Pay More
Ryan fulfilled his pledge to pay for a portion of his own healthcare and even supported a new initiative that is forcing all state Representative to pay for a portion of their healthcare costs like those in the private sector must do.

More Transparent Government
Ryan supported a new law that creates an on-line database of all state spending called PennWATCH that will let taxpayers see exactly where and how their money is spent.
