I have known Rob Hogg for many years. He has been a supporter for mental health issues.
Twenty to 25 percent of the population has a mental illness. And with family, friends, colleagues and neighbors, we are looking at a number that can swing elections. Someday both parties will have to talk about their support for this population.
Mental illness is one of the most agonizing aspects of the human condition known. But recovery can and does happen. I thank all that want to ease this pain. Hogg is a champion for us and I urge you to give him a good look.
