Letter: 49th District state representative

The Columbian
Published: October 21, 2011, 5:00pm

Are you tired of representatives in Olympia not being a voice for the people? You have an opportunity in the 49th District to elect a candidate, Craig Riley, who will take care of underserved seniors and children who need good health care. Riley, who has worked in the health care business for many years, knows his stuff. He supports an affordable bridge to alleviate the rush-hour traffic. I want the positive change Riley will bring. Vote Craig Riley for state representative in the 49th District.

This past April, Sharon Wylie was appointed as our representative to Olympia for the 49th District. Before this she served in the Oregon state House of Representatives. She has worked as a lobbyist and fully understands the political process. She has a long list of achievements as a hard-working leader for this entire region, stabilizing the economy. In Olympia she managed to bring a crime lab to Vancouver, making our streets safer. For the young she has made college education affordable. For the many who don’t have high-quality health care, she helped establish and fund the Center for Community Health. Veterans, seniors and families will do better from now on. Sharon Wylie has our vote.
