Editor,

Christine Chandler has accomplished much for House District 43 in her first term. During the 2019 state legislature, Rep. Chandler obtained a recurring $150,000 a year for a full-service public health facility in Los Alamos after the state reduced the hours and services in 2017. This facility reopened as the Health Commons in August 2019 in collaboration with Los Alamos County and the Los Alamos Public Schools. Having this resource was important to the community before the pandemic and has been essential in 2020. People have been able to get tested for COVID-19 and other vital services have also been available. This accomplishment helps to document Christine’s approach to serving the large and diverse House District 43, through endless energy to develop relationships in her district, in the Round House, and with leadership of New Mexico Departments.

For this and many other reasons, I support Christine Chandler for District House 43. Please join me in casting your vote for Christine.
