As a lifelong farmer and rancher in Southwest Colorado, and as someone who proudly served as the representative for House District 59, I understand the importance of strong, principled leadership for our communities.
We are in dire need of leaders who stand by agriculture and our rural way of life. I have known Naomi Riess for many years, and I can say with confidence that she is exactly the kind of leader we need. I personally witnessed her dedication when she helped the La Plata County Farm Bureau resolve challenges some members faced with the State Land Board regarding state land leases. Her knowledge, persistence and genuine care for the people she serves made a real difference.
Naomi supports not only agriculture but also families, local businesses and the values that make Southwest Colorado strong.
We need more common-sense, conservative rural voices in Denver.
I encourage voters to exercise their right to vote in November. Your vote does make a difference. We must be the change and get our friends and neighbors to the polls.
Supporting conservative candidates like Naomi Riess can help turn the tide in Colorado. It is up to us.
