St. Cloud Times | Opinion

St. Cloud Times Opinion:
"Rep. Larry Haws deserves a big thank you for representing District 15B well. The past year Haws put a lot of time and effort in getting bills passed to help our community and our veterans.
Larry Haws has the edge, the positive attitude, the professionalism, the confidence, the incredible ability and will power to put a bill on the fast track to become law.
Let me mention just one such bill that became law. Haws sponsored a bill to help fraternal organizations pay for expenses such as water, heating, electricity and sewer costs through pull-tab profits. Money made from pull tabs helps relieve poverty, homelessness, disability, treat problem gambling, education, scholarship funds, recognize military service, recreation, snowmobile trails, ATV trails, food shelves, cancer and the list goes on.
Some fraternal organizations have had to close because costs were too high. Now the doors will remain open to carry on this needed work. Thank you, Larry Haws!
Haws represents what we need in St. Paul — 'A little less talk and a whole lot more action,' 'A lot more nice.' ... We need leaders. I think I know who is the leader of the pack — Larry Haws. I like the way he communicates."
