Letter: Drotzmann’s fiscal responsibility ensures efficient use of resources

Published 3:00 am Wednesday, April 24, 2024

As a small business owner and health care provider in Pendleton, I commend Dr. Dave Drotzmann for his exemplary understanding of running a successful small business while maintaining superior eye care services.

Dave’s dedication to his community through volunteerism further exemplifies his commitment to serving others. Having observed Dave’s leadership firsthand, I am inspired by his ability to balance the rigorous demands of entrepreneurship with a genuine passion for enhancing the well-being of those around him. His approach not only fosters a thriving business but also cultivates a sense of unity and support within our community.

Moreover, Dave’s small business perspective extends beyond his clinic’s walls, influencing his engagement in years of service to local governments. His commitment to watching every dime mirrors the fiscal responsibility necessary for successful small businesses, ensuring efficient use of resources for the betterment of our community.

In an era where genuine connection and community engagement are often overshadowed by commercial interests, Dr. Dave Drotzmann serves as a shining example of how small businesses can thrive while prioritizing the needs of their customers and the community at large. Please join me in voting Dave Drotzmann for Senator of District 29!
