I have paid close attention to the job state Sen. Shenna Bellows has done since being elected in 2016. Her work ethic is superb. She has never missed a vote.

Her work in committee has shown her attention to detail without losing sight of the big picture. Her leadership and ability to build bi-partisan coalitions are tools that she has used to find solutions to issues that are important to us, ranging from arsenic in well water to help for our most vulnerable.

I am very pleased that she has chosen to run for re-election. Sen. Bellows has earned my gratitude and our votes in June and November.

Chuck Hillier, Monmouth
