Message for District 7

To the Residents of District 7,

I just wanted to wish everyone in the 7th House District a very Happy, Healthy and Prosperous New Year and thank everyone who expressed confidence in me as indicated by my re-election as your State Representative for my 4th and final term. It has truly been my honor to serve my constituents, an honor that I will always cherish and remember. These are very difficult and challenging days that we are going through here in Ohio, but please be assured that careful consideration and research directs every single vote that I cast. I realize that we may not always agree on every vote taken, but I will always respect your opinion and hopefully you will respect mine.

I hope and pray that God will not only watch over me, but that He will watch over every resident of this great State of Ohio.

Thank you and Happy New Year!

Kenny Yuko
State Representative- House District 7
