Karen Powell Takes Her Turn

Local activist Karen Powell [news] has an announcement to make, and she'll be making at the John Boyle O'Reilly Club this coming June 19th. The City of Springfield could certainly use some new faces on the City Council, and Powell's candidacy offers a perfect opportunity for us voters to make this happen.

Powell's views almost precisely (if not entirely) mirror my own views. In the past, she has worked with the Citizens for Limited Taxation, opposed trigger locks for guns in the City (read this Reminder article to see why), opposed the Albano-proposed needle exchange program, and helped manage this spring's "Keep Springfield Beautiful" effort (which I also participated in as a volunteer in the trenches ;-)

See her invitation to any & all interested, below.
