CURRIE: A proven leader

I am writing this letter in support of Rick Currie for House Seat 4B in the Idaho legislature.

I encourage your vote for Rick for two reasons: First, his opponent, incumbent Kathy Sims, is an embarrassment to the State of Idaho. Kathy has voted repeatedly to de-fund education.

She also votes no on bills that would provide for more jobs in Idaho. She has had no successful legislation in years, despite her constant complaints about urban renewal.

Her last bill on urban renewal in 2013 did not even get out of her own committee.

Kathy consistently makes misinformed statements to back her positions in opposition to education and jobs. Kathy needs to go.

The second reason I encourage your vote for Rick Currie is that Rick has the leadership we need to make good choices on education and our economy. Rick has proven his leadership through many years of service to our community.

Please vote for Rick Currie in the primary election on May 20th.
