Our community as well as this state has many every day issues facing all of us – important issues – like jobs with a good wage, accessible health care, gas prices, and college tuition. 

We must face these issues head on and with the experience and track record of a proven and progressive leader. Over the last 6 years I have been successfully fighting these issues for you and have been listening to what is a priority for you and our community.

I fully understand that I am ultimately accountable to each of you in our community and wake up every day committed to the priorities of this community.  I feel very fortunate to be blessed with the things that I have in my life but I know what it is to face the daily challenges of family life and to plan for our children’s future.  My commitment to you, as it has been from the day I was elected, is to help you and your family have a better life in a better community.

I believe we can continue to make progress everyday and that we are on the right pathway for our community and state.  I ask for your support in my reelection bid and for your prayers for this community..
