Candidate a guy who always pitched in

Posted March 10, 2016 11:01 pm

We remember Dan Wilbrandt, Republican candidate for Illinois State Representative, as the guy who pitched in to help his neighbors when they needed a ride to the store, offered a strong hand to assist with snow removal or lawn care, and as a skilled bricklayer, a young man able to build a sturdy structure.

Dan lives in our neighborhood and we have seen him grow. He now practices law, speaks clearly about his concerns for lowering taxes and protecting our local businesses, and combines a heart of gold with his gift for defining issues requiring attention in Springfield.

We worry about job security, rising taxes, maintaining property values and improving our local educational system. Dan offers us the opportunity to be heard far beyond the end of the street in our neighborhood as his voice resounds in Springfield. We are confident he will continue to build a sturdy structure.
