The Proven Commitment

Nearly all politicians tout the advantages of prosperous small businesses as important contributors to the community. However, many majority party politicians are often callous about imposing additional controls and regulations that impact small businesses.

A business must provide value to its customers, which means providing a suitable product or service at an agreeable price. At the same time, the business must meet its financial obligations to employees, suppliers, banks, and others. A business that fails to clear both of these two hurdles fails to survive. That failure causes a loss of jobs, vacant structures, and tax revenue for the local community.

Majority party politicians have spent decades creating laws that force additional regulations on small businesses. Regulations requiring higher taxes, more fees, greater administration, and costs, raise onerous hurdles to success. These majority politicians often have no or little private sector business experience.

This is why Kathryn Russell is the clear choice to help small businesses bring the prosperity to our communities that we all seek. She has 30 years of business experience, an advanced business degree from Wharton, and hands-on experience with two business start-ups. As an active selectwoman in Deep River, she has a current understanding of the needs of small business owners. Why not choose a candidate with actual experience and the proven commitment to foster ongoing dialogue with local businesses?

Vote for Kathryn Russell for State Representative of the 36th District.
