I was pleased to hear that Tara Johnson was running for the state Senate in District 32. In her eight years on the La Crosse County Board, she has been a leader and innovator, especially in the area of health and human services. Because of her hard work, frail and elderly adults will have wrap-around services from one place.
Tara asks questions. She does not accept the answer “because that is the way we have always done it.” She looks for innovative and creative ways to solve problems.
Instead of flitting around the edges of the health care problem, she will tackle this very difficult problem and work to bring quality, affordable health care to the people of western Wisconsin.
I am looking forward to voting for Tara Johnson and for new leadership on Nov. 4, and I hope that everyone in the area will consider doing the same. Tara is someone we can be proud of.
