Letter: Kraft connects and engages

Voting for Vicki Kraft as state representative for the 17th Legislative District, Position 1, will ensure a thriving local business community, with great job opportunities to go along with it. Based on my more than 30 years of Fortune 500-level business experience, I can tell you that Kraft’s leadership skills, along with her unique experience in the private sector and engaging with public entities, add up to her being ideally suited to provide the representation we need in Olympia to get this job done.

One great example that demonstrates how Kraft is already doing this sort of work is her initiative with potential and new local companies to facilitate their entrance into our business community through connecting them with the Columbia River Economic Development Council and to local community leaders.
