Ortiz does a good job

Four-term state House member Dan Ortiz deserves another two years representing Wrangell, Ketchikan and Prince of Wales Island communities.

He knows the district, knows the issues and has been persistent in his work in Juneau to ensure that his communities are not forgotten when the state budget is put together and when legislation is drafted.

Ortiz is not a speechmaker but is not shy about standing up for the ferry system, community needs such as state money for improvements to Wrangell’s water treatment plant, and better funding for schools.

The district would be well served if he stays on the job.
