Introduction Thank you for taking the time to visit my blog profile. My website includes background information on the Tazewell County Board, my political efforts, recent political columns, newspaper articles, calendar of events, various links to the municipalities in my Tazewell County Board District and other useful information. During my campaign for office, I discussed my goal of greater communication and availability of information. This blog profile and my website are just two ways in which I hope to accomplish that goal. Government only works properly when the elected officials have proper information from the people and I encourage you to help me with this by providing your input. Together, we can continue to strengthen and grow Tazewell County and the State of Illinois. Thank you once again for taking this time to visit my blog profile and feel free to contact me anytime.
