As a longtime San Luis Obispo County resident, I care dearly about maintaining a strong local economy. If we want to fully recover from our latest recession, local leaders must promote policies that spur job creation and promote economic opportunity.

In order to protect our way of life, we need to first protect our local economy. Supervisor Debbie Arnold is a great example of a leader who works with the community to grow the economy and create jobs for hardworking families.

Debbie’s love of the Central Coast region is palpable, and her experience as a local businesswoman is exactly what I look for in a candidate. I support Debbie for re-election because she has continuously fought to promote job creation and economic opportunity throughout the region.

Edie Knight, Atascadero
