Jackson has integrity

| November 1, 2006 11:00 PM

I have known Verdell Jackson for many years. His four terms in the Montana House of Representatives have, in my opinion, proven him to be a man of integrity. Many who take up the mantle of public office become self-absorbed in the illusion of their own importance. Verdell has remained an affable and honest friend and neighbor, generous with his time and energy. He will look you in the eye and tell you the truth, not what you want to hear.

His tireless work as a legislator gives him unmatched insights into the specific issues which affect the varied communities and citizens of Senate District 5. Verdell has a solid proven conservative voting record. He advocates for maintaining a small but efficient government and trusts the taxpayers to spend their own money as best fits the needs of their families. As senator, he will work for elimination of the marriage penalty tax to promote these family values. Verdell has a record of working with individual Flathead Valley citizens to protect access to public lands, private property rights and water rights and lower property taxes.

I believe that Verdell Jackson represents the values that make Montana the last great place to live. I hope that you will join me on November 7 in voting to send Verdell Jackson to the Montana Senate for District 5.
