A Message From Ted

Dear Friends,

I am running for State House of Representatives because I want to leave our community and our State a better place for our children. As your representative, I will focus on our community values, values like:

-the freedom to get home quickly and safely on less congested roads so we can spend time with our families,

-the security of affordable access to health care,

-education that opens the door to a lifetime of opportunity for our kids,

- and a prosperous Minnesota economy.

I look forward to getting to know you during the coming months and pledge to make listening to you the centerpiece of my campaign. When I am your State Representative, I will work hard to move our community forward!

Best Wishes ,

Ted Butler
