State Representative Ron Guggisberg to seek second term

(FARGO, ND) — State Representative Ron Guggisberg (Democrat – Fargo) announced today that he will be seeking re-election to the State House from District 11.

Representative Ron Guggisberg released the following statement:

“I have been honored to have been given the opportunity to work on behalf of the constituents of District 11 and I want to continue to work for them in the next four years.

“During my time in the North Dakota House, I’ve worked with members of both parties to find common sense solutions that advance economic opportunities in our district. I want to continue this work.

“I also want to continue my work on the issues important to District 11. Securing flood protection and water supply to Eastern North Dakota are critical to Fargo’s future. I will work with legislators from both parties to secure funding for these projects. Our children remain North Dakota’s greatest resource and I am committed to ensuring every child has the opportunity to get a great education from Pre-K through college.

“Finally, with North Dakotas exponential growth in energy development, we need to ensure it is done carefully and with minimum impact to the citizens throughout the state. I will also search for common sense policies that use these resources for the benefit of future generations.

“District 11 has always been good to me. I’m asking for their support so we can continue the progress we’ve made over the last few years.” (END)
