Join me March 6 when I vote “yes” for extending the local-option sales tax. As a business case manager at SCORE, I've worked with hundreds of businesses and their families that were devastated by the 2008 floods, including my family business.
Many business owners lost their homes and businesses. The pain, debt load and job loss they suffered is too great to overcome again. Let's protect our city for the future. We are one community; we need flood protection on both sides of the river.
