Opinion: Candidate Curran has determination, ethics, says Massena couple

Posted

Rita Curran resides in Legislative District 15 which includes Louisville, Waddington and part of Massena known as local election district #2. Rita is the leading candidate running for County Legislator in District 15.

Rita grew up in Louisville and graduated from Massena Central High School. In fact, Rita was one of my students at the high school, friendly with excellent attendance, and an overachiever. Rita’s determination and ethics for hard work certainly transferred over to her accomplishments.

In 1994 Rita earned her degree as a registered nurse and has spent much of her professional career in emergency medicine and in public health, with an interest in infectious disease.

She is a family nurse practitioner and is currently working at the VA community-based outreach clinic in Massena and at Massena Memorial Hospital in the emergency room. Rita is a member of the NYS Nurses Association. She is a big supporter of veterans and their causes. She also supports the second amendment.

Rita Curran is involved in the Fostering Futures Program and is a foster parent. Rita also volunteers at the American Legion in Waddington and is a member of the rod & gun club.

Rita has assisted with a variety of political campaigns and is committed to work for the people of St. Lawrence County and with the St. Lawrence County legislature to maintain the improved economy established by the legislature’s majority.

Rita Curran wants to keep taxes down; she wants to expand our efforts for tourism and for local business; and she wants to rebuild our infrastructure to benefit the residents of our county. She wants to be involved with our communities through participation at our legislature.

She will be there as a community leader at meetings, be there to hear your issues, and is ready to work and fight the opioid challenges that have an impact on all of us in St. Lawrence County.

If you want to reach out to her, feel free to contact her at 315-857-5994 and/or go to Improvecommunities2018@gmail.com .

We urge you to support Rita Curran Nov. 6.

Rita is running on the following lines at the polls: Republican, Conservative, and the independent line for tax reduction as part of the fiscal responsibility coalition. She will represent you well!
