Four years ago when Rush voters gave me the opportunity to serve on our Town Council it was my first experience as an elected official. I am grateful for your trust. I now ask you for your support once again. My central goal for Rush remains the same: to bring you a more open and receptive government. To advance this purpose, I have established a number of ways for making information more available. I periodically send my independent report of what’s happening directly to each Rush voter. I personally have made audio recordings of all Town Council meetings and posted them on the www.Rushdemocrats.org website. I also organized a town forum to allow our citizens an opportunity to voice your concerns and your ideas. I hope you will give me the chance to continue my service to you. I look forward to continuing what we have started and to expand on our progress.

I ask for your support on Election Day, November 3 , 2009. Thank you.
