Where this candidate has done the work

Each category shows whether they've engaged substantively, taken a position, or stayed quiet; not a pass/fail grade.

AI Rollout

platform

He actively opposes or critiques large-scale data center expansions, focusing on their strain on local resources and community disruption.

"When I first heard about the proposed data center in Box Elder County, my first reaction was... [and] Data Center Protest | 801 Elsinger Blvd."
Why this rating

Depth is high because Ryerse has engaged specifically with the controversy surrounding data centers (e.g., Box Elder, Memphis, New Jersey) and attended local protests. Alignment is very high as he sides with residents against corporate expansion, specifically mentioning the tech industry's 'barreling' toward infrastructure without community regard (interview, news).

Worker Rights & Tech-Driven Disempowerment

inferred

He supports labor over corporate interests, specifically criticizing incumbents for voting against the interests of working families.

"Steve Womack votes to make life harder for working people... And then for his job as a senator, he votes on AI and tech legislation."
Why this rating

Inferred from: His platform focus on 'Good jobs' and his specific criticism of Steve Womack's voting record on tech/AI legislation as harmful to 'working people' (news). His self-identification with the 'Political Revolution' subreddit suggests alignment with strong labor protections.

Surveillance, Data Privacy & Civil Liberties

Weakly Inferred

He explicitly opposes the expansion of ICE surveillance and digital tracking of immigrant communities.

"House Democrats just voted to expand ICE surveillance... I'm proud to sign @abolish_ice_pledge."
Why this rating

[unverified quote] Depth is solid due to his signing of a specific pledge against surveillance. Alignment is at the top of the scale because he calls for the abolition of the agency responsible for that surveillance and critiques Democrats for expanding digital surveillance infrastructure (interview).

Social Media, Platform Power & Information

mostly quiet

Implicitly critical of corporate influence, but lacks specific platform reform proposals.

"Tired of being ignored by politicians who care more about their party than your family?"
Why this rating

While Ryerse campaigns significantly on being 'AIPAC-free' and anti-incumbent (social), he has not released specific policies regarding Section 230, moves to break up Big Tech, or algorithmic accountability beyond general anti-establishment rhetoric.
