NEWS RELEASE
Welsh Announces Candidacy for Lehigh County Commissioner
It is time for elected government officials to put the needs of those they represent first and not the special interests of local party leaders or significant campaign financiers.
It is time for county government to realize that the days of wasteful program spending and out of control wage and benefits growth are coming to an end. We need leaders who are not so far out of the mainstream that they have an inability to reach across the table when challenged so as to meet the needs of the county.
I believe it is time for county government to focus on core government services and get out of the business of funding programs that are not necessary or should be supported by the private sector or the community at large.
