To the editor:

Voting for Denise McCleary will bring sanity to the Florida House of Representatives.

Denise is running to represent Cape Coral (District 79). She will stop the nonsense that has been coming out of Tallahassee, such as CRT, Don’t Say Gay, abortion bans, and approving radioactive waste to be put on our roads. As a veteran, Denise fought for this country and our democracy. McCleary says “I want veterans like me, and everyone in our community, to be respected, taken care of, and be able to enjoy the beautiful area that we have here in Florida.”

Cape Coral is an important part of Lee County and residents deserve to have their voices heard. People here are still struggling with claims from insurance companies after Hurricane Ian. They are now facing cancellation of insurance and premiums that have been doubled in costs. Veterans and older Floridians are living off their Social Security and with increasing costs they may have to leave the state. It’s clear our representatives in the Florida legislature are not working for us.

Denise served in the Army National Guard with tours during Operation Desert Storm and Enduring Freedom. She served as the Chief of Audit Operations with the New Jersey National Guard. McCleary will apply her military logistical, operational, and ethical standards to fight for the people in her district from Tallahassee.

Denise McCleary is an active member of her local Veterans of Foreign Wars post. She served as a post Quartermaster, District Quartermaster, and has received many awards.
