Finding unity in politics is tough, but we can fix our government with the right leadership in place.
For the past 12 years, as a township trustee, county commissioner and chair of the Genesee County Commission, I have worked to bring people together and work on our region s most significant challenges. Over the years, we had to make tough decisions about the county s future. It started with who we hired.
For decades, jobs in the county were handed to friends and family, without proper vetting. As a result, our infrastructure aged, the delivery of county services remained antiquated, and our county is at risk of financial collapse and state control. We put an end to favoritism, cronyism and nepotism by taking the politics out of the hiring process.
