Disappointed in Congress endorsement

Posted November 02, 2016 1:00 am

I was very disappointed in your endorsement for the 8th Congressional District race.Pete DiCianni is a quality "Can Do" candidate that has the leadership and real life experiences to make things happen.

When he was Mayor of Elmhurst he created thousands of jobs during the economic downturn, engaged the public in task forces so the people would be part of the process and have a voice, was able to help people with flooding receive FEMA dollars in Elmhurst and the surrounding areas because he worked for not just Elmhurst residents but all the people, and has written two laws, one that has impacted children with Autism and been adopted in 44 states and the other law impacts seniors with Alzheimer.

He has been elected not appointed to the offices that he serves in. There is a reason that Pete has the overwhelming majority of mayors in the 8th District supporting him.
