Rep. Larry Valencia
(Democrat, District 39) wants to serve his District for a second term. Larry
was, until redistricting, the state representative for the northern half of Charlestown , but after the lines were re-drawn, Donna
Walsh now represents all of Charlestown .
Nonetheless, the Charlestown Democratic Town Committee voted unanimously on Monday to support Larry’s re-election campaign and to thank him
for his hard work on economic issues, especially tax justice at the state
level. The committee also thanked him for his support in the CDTC’s efforts tolower the property taxes for nearly all of Charlestown ’s permanent residents through a
Homestead Tax Credit.

night in Wyoming at the Dragon Palace
When: Monday, June 25th 6:30 to 8:30 pm

Larry has a Republican opponent, Clay Johnson, who runs a
day care center in Wakefield
and is the Chair of the controversial South Kingstown Chamber of Commerce,
though they prefer to be known by the presumptuous title of South COUNTY
Chamber of Commerce.
