Tanel Kiik

XV Riigikogu

General information

I am a staunch supporter of solidarity based health care system, human oriented social policies, and fair taxation. I am also passionate about environmental protection and promoting green ideals and healthy lifestyles. As member of the 15th Riigikogu, my priority is to make sure that the state supports people and businesses in coping with several crises at once and ensures that its residents have access to the necessary services and benefits both in large centres as well as smaller local governments.
