Statement from the candidate:
Woodbury residents asked me to run. They are tired of the political bickering and they want a Legislature that completes its work. They realize that the budget deficit was not fixed. We are paying higher fees and property taxes. The cuts to school funding has eroded educational quality.Classrooms are overcrowded,parents are asked to pay more fees, and the projections for future deficits continue. Residents want a Representative that will use common sense in addressing fiscal issues and that gets the job done.
