Dear friend,

I will fight in Lansing to create good-paying jobs, reform government, and get Michigan's economy moving in the right direction again. I am truly honored for your consideration to be a voice of reason in Lansing, and I hope to work for you as your next State Senator.

A lot of people in Lansing are too busy protecting special interest groups and wealthy corporations to fight for Michigan workers and their families. Our priorities must be strengthening our education system to create the best-educated workforce possible, creating an environment that is friendly to both businesses and workers, and protecting the natural resources that make our state so special. We must make Michigan competitive by positioning ourselves as a pioneer of renewable energy technologies that will play an important role not just in rebuilding our state, but in changing the way our entire country makes use of its limited energy resources.

I have been, and will continue to be, a strong advocate for positive change in our state. I look forward to working with all of you to build a better, stronger Michigan.

Sincerely,
