Editor, Ceres Courier,

The election campaign has come to a close. I want to thank the community for its support and confidence.

This election sent a strong message to Sacramento and Washington and to our local governments. The public is demanding real concrete action to address our challenges. That is why the state water bond and budget emergency fund received such overwhelming support. Elected officials need to stop the war of partisan sound bites and begin problem solving.

I am proud that my record of working with both Democrats and Republicans was endorsed by the voters of the 21st Assembly District. Our area is lucky because our representatives share a commitment to solve problems, and to work together. I want you to know that will continue to be my approach during my second term in the state Assembly.

Please call or write me with your thoughts, ideas of suggestions. We are stronger when we work together.
I look forward to another term.

Adam Gray,
Assemblyman,
21st District
