A Message From Rick Day – Vote Day for a Better Way
Election 2018, Politics September 11, 2018The reason I am motivated to serve this district is impatience with the current leadership on the implementation of the cannabis (marijuana) regulatory and industrial systems long overdue. It is time to be part of the rest of the nation and a $60 billion dollar a year industry. I want North GA to be the Napa Valley of cannabis and agricultural hemp. I intend to spend the season meeting and listening to people–to their concerns, and what the state legislature should and should not do for them. For too long, the 7th has had neither meaningful regional leadership nor challenges to their decisions at the ballot. For too long, the corporate status quo established in the highest reaches of State Government dine on the lobbyist’s dime, and mockingly depend on our rural votes. Yet year after year, we see other counties thrive, while we languish as a ‘retirement community and our best and brightest young people move away. The entrenched GOP leadership fails every year to ‘bring home the bacon’. This must stop. We deserve better leadership from our leaders. We deserve more than Proclamations. We need jobs, justice reform, and we need quality affordable healthcare.
We need something different in local representation. ACTUAL representation.
