State Representative Jay Rodne has done a terrible job of representing the citizens of the 5th Legislative District. He pinned a target on Muslims and then said “arm yourselves.”

If you like hate talk, Rodne is your guy.

He received an “F” on the Alliance for Gun Responsibility’s 2015 “Gun Responsibility Scorecard,” ignoring that a majority of voters support universal background checks on guns sales.

If you like unrestricted gun ownership, Rodne is your guy. He even voted against animal cruelty regulations (SB 5501 in 2015).

Seventy-eight percent of Americans oppose unlimited donations to political campaigns. But when I was gathering petition signatures for I-735 to overturn the Supreme Court’s decision defining money as speech and corporations as people, he refused to sign it.

If you think concentrating power in 450 of the richest Americans is good, then Rodne is your guy. Otherwise vote for Jason Ritchie, a champion of the middle class and good government.
