As the voices on both sides of the political spectrum become more strident and divisive, it is important to remember the thoughtful, patient voice of Peggy Rotundo.

As a member of the Appropriations Committee during the last legislative session, she listened and guided and helped forge bipartisan approval of the proposed budget.

The difficult choices confronting the upcoming Legislature will require such thoughtfulness, patience and leadership.

Peggy Rotundo listens to her constituents and her colleagues and represents everyone.
