Rettig is a Johnson County treasure

After attending a candidate forum recently for Johnson County Supervisors, I'm reminded once again about what a treasure we have in Janelle Rettig.
Her accomplishments during her current term on the board are myriad, including increasing funding for social services and affordable housing, supporting programs and funding for those living in poverty, improve the infrastructure of our roads and bridges and achieving all of these important goals while balancing the budget and lowering our overall county debt.
She literally attends (and enjoys) every event in the county, from the smallest to the largest, and has her finger in every possible pie. She knows the county's needs backward and forward. I urge you to vote for her on or before June 5.
