Today we interview a Congressional Candidate running in 11th District of New Jersey. Please do see his website and his facebook page to follow his Campaign and events, http://www.facebook.com/JohnArvanitesForCongress, as he is really working hard for the people of his state. He is a CPA who is running for office in the 11th District. You can read more on his website, http://www.arvanitesforcongress.com/, and see he is focusing on the issues of Middle Class families and workers.
We will be discussing his campaign, his work for the people of his state and the issues facing New Jersey and the 11th District.
John will join the show a little after 3PM and the show starts at 3PM today.
As we enter this coming Election Season I am trying to have guests on from different states to explain issues and Living Conditions that are driving this Election so we all better know what our Country is facing. ( And so that we can view each other as Neighbors and connect as a Community, nationwide.)
