Tryon helps people with real problems

Posted October 28, 2008 11:00 pm

Recently I had a problem with the City of Crystal Lake taking responsibility for back-flushing a main sewer line and flooding my house with city sewage. It cost me over $15,000 to fix their problem. I say this because when no one would come to my aid, State Rep. Mike Tryon reached out to me and my family because he thought the law should be strengthened to require insurance companies to cover these losses. Since I met Mike, he has made himself available to me whenever I call.

I want to publicly thank Mike for taking an interest in my fight and for trying to correct an injustice. This is who we need to continue to represent us in Springfield. My wife and I are split on our presidential vote, but united when it comes to who we will vote for state representative in District 64.
