The Drew MacEwen campaign kick-off drew a full house in Shelton on September 30. It was standing room ony as MacEwen introduced himself, outlined his background and reasons for running for the State House of Representatatives in the 35th Legislative District, Position 2.
MacEwen spoke for about twenty minutes at the kick-off event, pinpointing problems and potential solutions within the state. Among the many topics discussed were state budget priorities, identifying and reducing/eliminating wasteful government spending, transportation, commerce, healthcare, reducing taxes and the need for more competition and local control in education. "Government can provide tools to promote a business-friendly climate" he said, "but government doesn't create jobs; business does."
