Reason for Seeking Public Office:

Having spent 10 years at the County level understanding the inner workings of the system, budgetary concerns our community and residents faced as well as the need for structural improvements and evolvement forward to better life for all, and with the retirement of the Honorable Ezra Kanoho in 2006, Jimmy decided to run for the State House District 15 seat.
