Chase for limited government
“Those who expect to reap the blessings of freedom, must, like men, undergo the fatigue of supporting it.”
We are blessed to have someone who embodies those words of Thomas Paine in Spokane County. His name is Rob Chase. Rob has strived to bring accountability, transparency and frugality to all levels of government, and sees a great need for all of these in Spokane County. That’s why he is running for 2nd District county commissioner.
Rob has continuously lived in the 2nd for 20-plus years. He grasps politics because he started at the ground level as a precinct officer, then district leader and Spokane County treasurer. He understands the burdens placed on local business from being the manager of a local business on one side and now seeing the results of those burdens as treasurer.
But most importantly, Rob is a man of character, who cherishes freedom and limited government, while discerning the economic challenges that await us.
Experience, know-how, moral-fiber and energy; Chase for county commissioner!
“If ever time should come, when vain and aspiring men shall possess the highest seats in Government, our country will stand in need of its experienced patriots to prevent its ruin.” – Samuel Adams.
