Via email - I just love this:

Rick Shriver, Candidate for the State Senate representing Meigs County, will be appearing in Pomeroy on Tuesday, August 5, at 6:00 PM. Shriver, who is a County Commissioner in Morgan County, has also been a professional musician for nearly forty years. He performs with his two sons, and is bringing his show to the Riverfront in Pomeroy.

Shriver is appearing in each of the nine counties in the 20th Senate District in what he is calling the “Taking Our Values to Columbus Tour.” Shriver, a lifelong resident of his family farm in Morgan County, believes that “we need someone to take our values to Columbus, not the other way around.”

The tour and the Meigs County appearance are aimed at helping to raise funds for the “Rick Shriver for State Senate” campaign. While there is no charge to attend, campaign contributions will be accepted at the event.

“Bring a lawn chair, meet Rick, and enjoy some good music, refreshments and fun along the riverfront,” declared Randy Hart, Meigs County Coordinator for Shriver’s campaign. The event is being sponsored by Citizens to Elect Rick Shriver.

Debbie Phillips, candidate for 92nd Ohio State House District, will participate in a forum concerning healthcare affordability and coverage hosted by Ohio Consumers for Health Coverage at the Athens Public Library from 6-8pm Tuesday, August 5th:

Recent increases in insurance costs have led businesses and public institutions to make the painful choice between providing health care or a decent wage. Phillips will fight to expand healthcare services for Southeast Ohioans through increased access to preventive care. Phillips is also dedicated to expanding access to Medicaid while enacting common sense solutions to keep spending under control.

According to the Ohio Hospital Association, 4 out of 5 uninsured Ohioans are in working families.

“As I travel the district, I’ve been meeting people every day who are struggling with health care issues. From the woman who is delaying important tests until she is old enough for Medicare, to the parents who see close to half their paycheck go to cover their families, people need a change. I am committed to ensuring that we make the system work better for our seniors, our families, and the hard-working people of southeastern Ohio.”
