Lawrence Bruckner says “we not me” is the new order of business for the 71st Representative district. At a press conference, to announce his campaign, Bruckner presented the “seeds for the future” strategy. Bruckner is the Republican nominee and will face Representative Mike Boland in the fall. If elected, Bruckner said he would give 10 percent of his salary, $7,300 for transportation to the John Deere Commons and the Reagan Learning Center.
Bruckner, an attorney, also said that a legislator could not do everything by himself. He wants to provide a mobile office, free legal clinics, advice on foreclosure to maybe prevent them, repay credit, help the University of Illinois Extension because 4H is a vital program, and assure an independent commission to pick scholarship winners. He also said it makes business sense to have a bike path completed.
Mayor of Moline, Don Welveart said Bruckner is needed for the area. “Mr. Boland has been asleep at the switch. He’s voted against downstate Illinois. We’re looking for downstate Illinois, the city of Moline. Bruckner is well schooled in state government, local government, I ask for your support of him. It’s time for a change. I looking for an excellent change in 180 days, 6 months,” he said.
