Dear Editor,

As a resident of Oakdale, I am paying close attention to who is willing to represent our community in Sacramento. That is why I am supporting Jim Shoemaker for State Assembly.

Jim Shoemaker has taken the time to connect with communities throughout our region, including here in Stanislaus County. He understands the needs of working families, small businesses, and those of us who want to preserve the character and strength of towns like Escalon, Riverbank, and Oakdale.

His campaign has earned the support of respected leaders who know our communities well, including Jeff Kay and Congressman Tom McClintock. Their endorsements reflect confidence in Jim’s ability to represent our interests and deliver results.

Like many in Oakdale, I am concerned about the rising cost of living, public safety, and the direction of policies that often overlook communities like ours. We need a representative who will advocate for practical solutions and ensure our voices are heard.

Jim Shoemaker brings a straightforward and accountable approach focused on improving affordability, supporting local economies, and strengthening the quality of life for families throughout our district.

I encourage my fellow residents to take a closer look at his campaign and consider supporting him for State Assembly.

Sincerely,

Dan Cummins
