As a resident of the 85th District, I was at the recent debate and I’ve closely followed the race for our next state representative and here’s how I see it.
Republican Fred Keller has made it very clear that he is running to serve the hard working residents of the 85th District.
He campaigns conveying a positive message of taking the values of the 85th District, such as lower taxes, entrepreneurship, protecting the unborn, protecting gun owners’ rights, dedication to family and faith to Harrisburg, and cleaning up the way Pennsylvania does business.

Public investment
Public investment? Pennsylvania's funding of our local schools is a crying shame. Sure, times are tough, but the state managed to come up with $10 million for Bucknell University, a private school, to have a new bookstore in downtown Lewisburg. I'm still not sure how Bucknell wrangled that deal or why a private university is entitled to public funding.

Ill-conceived measure
Ill-conceived plan. It is imperative that motorists drive safely and courteously when approaching bicyclists. The only problem with the new bicyclist law requiring motorists to allow four feet of distance between their cars and the bicyclists is that this will place the car in the opposing travel lane or require it to cross the yellow line in a no-passing zone.

Public obligation
As part of her argument for home schooling, "Studying in Pajamas", Jan. 20, Joanna Wert dismisses public schools and "the majority of American workers" with a few condescending generalizations. She goes on to extol her own children's virtues and accomplishments, and then lists famous people whom she claims were home-schooled.
