District 15 Advocacy News

I have secured a meeting with Senator Nancy Cassis from district 15 in Oakland County which covers: Commerce Twp, Highland Twp, Holly Twp, Lyon Twp, Milford Twp, Northville city (part), Novi city, Novi Twp, Orchard Lake city, Rose Twp, South Lyon city, Walled Lake city, West Bloomfield Twp, White Lake Twp and Wixom city on February 8th. If you reside in this region, please forward me a letter (however brief) stating your support of the bills and I can hand deliver them. You can also send correspondence to her directly at: Mailing Address: Senator Nancy Cassis P.O. Box 30036 Lansing, MI 48909-7536 By Phone: (517) 373-1758 By Fax: (517) 373-0938 By Email: senncassis@senate.michigan.gov It is critical that she hear from her constituents as she was non-commital last time I spoke with her. She was concerned about added cost but is listening. Let's do our best to convince her! Thanks, Jim (248) 396-9426 jblood98@yahoo.com
