Dear Friend,
I am running for State Representative because I believe it is time to take a strong, conservative stance to Lansing.
While other states grow and enjoy economic prosperity, Michigan remains in a single state recession. But it doesn't have to be this way. We have the people, the skills, the education system and the natural resources to make Michigan strong again. We need leadership in Lansing that is committed to making the tough decisions - not partisan finger pointing. We deserve better.
For me there is no other place as special as northwest Michigan. Thirty years ago, I chose to move to Manistee county; to raise my family here and to go into business. Owning two local grocery stores, I know what it takes to succeed. "Business as usual" will not attract new employers to our area.
I served on the Onekama Village Council for 29 years; the last six as Village President. During my tenure I made getting results a top priority. We cut taxes by 50%, paid off bonds 12 to 30 years early, and established a road re-surfacing program. When I left, there was approximately two years' of fund equity in our account balances. I want to take that drive and determination to Lansing.
I am interested in getting results for our families and job providers in our communities. I hope you will support my campaign to get Michigan working again.
Sincerely,
Ray
