As the wife of a city of Monroe police officer, I am voting for Mitch Ruth for mayor. Mitch has the honesty, integrity and dedication that the city needs in a mayor. The safety of the community and police employees is already in jeopardy with the previous furloughs and layoffs that have led to vacancies, cuts in training and equipment. Mitch will fight against further layoffs and furloughs that hurt the citizens, employees and their families. Mitch does not want to raise taxes and he wants to curb frivolous spending on unnecessary attorney fees that are a current drain on the city’s budget.
Mitch is a well known and respected businessman in Monroe and he is the change the city needs to succeed. This election is going to have an impact on what the next 20 years hold for the city. I do not want to see the city of Monroe going backwards any longer. That is why I am voting Mitch Ruth for mayor.
