Dear Neighbor:
I have made a home in this district for 21 years. I am honored that you have trusted me to represent you, and I know that the work you want me and the legislature to do is not finished. Our communities - neighborhoods, cities, the state as a whole - need us all to find common ground. That's the mission I will pursue if you elect me again.
I will continue to seek your advice and ideas. Feel free to call me at 503-248-9930.
Please vote for me as your State Representative.
Mary Nolan
