Two writers think Colleen Callahan Deserves Our Support!

The name and voice of Colleen Callahan are well known in central Illinois as the agricultural expert for WMBD radio and television. Her news reports and commentary on farm issues brought her the respect of the farming community and general population. As a dietitian, I was her guest on many occasions to highlight “you are what you eat”—better health through better food choices. Colleen seeks to represent central Illinois residents as their representative in Congress from the 18th District, formerly held by Ray LaHood.
Health care is an issue Callahan places among her top priorities. She will advocate for workers who lost their family health insurance when the breadwinner moved to a better-paying job. She understands that quality healthcare coverage will benefit the whole community by lowering the costs of expensive treatment in an emergency department. Nine million children are currently uninsured or underinsured in our country. Colleen promises is to see this remedied during her time in office.
That promise that can only come true if Colleen Callahan is elected to Congress. Join me in voting on November 4 for Colleen Callahan Democrat from the 18th District.

Support Colleen Callahan, the candidate for the 18th Congressional District she is running an honest and fair campaign. She focuses on the issues. It is time for a change. She would support President Barrack Obama and other Democrats in Congress, who are trying to reform and expand Health Care Coverage.
Colleen Callahan has the maturity and judgment to make good decisions in Congress. Colleen Callahan would be the first woman ever elected to the 18th Congressional seat.
