On the heels of my last blog, I want to make a formal announcement. I am currently one of two Democrats running in HD 91 (East Missoula to Clearwater to beyond Clinton.) This is a chance to become a Representative in the Montana Legislature during the 2009 Legislative Session. It is a great opportunity to have a person with a disability sit on the Joint Subcommittee on Health and Human Services. It's a real chance to make major progress on DPHHS policy toward the disabled, elderly and children. Currently, I'm organizing my campaign. For those who are interested in supporting the campaign, two things are needed. A) We need word-of-mouth and publicity. For any who know someone who lives out here, please mention my name and any good things you can think to say about me. I'd appreciate it. B) We also need donations to raise funds. I will hold a formal fundraiser in the near future, but I really need financial support because I'm running in a Primary against another Democrat. The Primary is in June so I need a workable budget to compete this early. Any who want to contribute, the limit for an individual donation is $130 but anything would be greatly helpful. If you want to donate, message me by email and we can make proper arrangements. I need as much support as possible because my Primary opponent, Tim Furey from the Bonner area, is formidible. So, publicity and funding should make a good start. I will publish a campaign website within the week and post the link here. If you have any questions, feel free to ask. This is quite a challenge but I'm sure we can accomplish this goal together. Thank you my friends.
