I just recently met an outstanding young man who has thrown his hat into the political arena. You wouldn’t think that of a professional nurse, someone who already cares for everyone that he encounters.

Caleb McCoy is running for the vacated 79th District house. He has made it clear that he will represent all of the residents of the 79th regardless of their political affiliation. How very refreshing it is to hear someone say that in a world where it’s either one side or the other is always right or has to be. It’s been a very long time since we’ve had someone who’s willing to work both sides of the aisle for the betterment of his constituents. Please join me and the members of organized labor and supporting this fine young man who wants to continue to help people by becoming the next state representative for the 79th District.
