A letter from the candidate.

A number of negative mailings attacking me on behalf of my opponent Su Ryden have gone to Aurora residents in recent days. These pieces distort the truth and mislead citizens with false statements about my record. Particularly abhorrent is the claim that I would allow insurers to deny cancer screenings when my own mother is suffering from lung cancer. In an effort to keep this campaign clean, I have put the word out to party officials that I will not stand for any ads that would attack my opponent. I ask Mrs. Ryden to do the same and to publicly denounce the distortions already made. She can put an end to the dishonest activities of third party groups by publicly asking the groups to cease their activities. To do otherwise while claiming to run a clean campaign is disingenuous.

I am posting corrections to the distortions HERE. But I also encourage you to do your own research. Take the time to look at the information by using the very sources cited in the attack ads. After looking at the information, I am sure it will be clear just how willing this group has been to mangle the truth

Sincerely,
Kathy Green
