Contributor Opinion by John Moser: I Support Sen. Jennie Forehand

This Contributor Opinion is by John Moser.

I have known Jennie Forehand since before she went into politics. She never “grandstands”; she is not a publicity seeker; she does not have a “hidden agenda”; she is there when needed;. Basically, what you see is what you get—she truly serves her constituency and, in the process, improves the quality of life for all.

Her constituency service is absolutlely outstanding—second to none—and, since she arrived in Annapolis, has been a strong advocate for schools, health and safety. Jennie does not seek the media spotlight and she always, always delivers on her promises. One of her outstanding qualities is that she is NOT afraid of change, if it is for the betterment of all. And she is always pleasant and smiling while doing the business of government; like President Ronald Reagan, she never raises the issue of age against a political opponent.

Jennie’ seniority is a huge PLUS. Having worked a a Senatorial Aide in Annapolis for much more than a decade, I can personally attest to the value of this type of access—bureaucrats respond much more readily to elected officials who understand the legislative process, who are a known quantity.and who use their seniority wisely. To ‘badmouth” the power of incumbency is truly counter-productive. Jennie knows: who to call , how to get issues resolved , and how to get an immediate response.

A change based solely on the issue of “younger leadership” is not in the interest of the electorate. Senator Jennie Forehand represents her District well, she is readily accessible and she certainly knows her way around Maryland government and politics. .

I support her fully and most certainly hope that she shall continue to serve us for many more years.
