Local Representative will seek another term
As expected, Representative Jim Dunnam today formally announced that he will be seeking re-election in 2010. Dunnam hopes to continue representing House District 57, comprised of Falls, Leon, Madison, Robertson, and part of McLennan counties, for another two-year term. The announcement was coupled with the launch of his updated campaign website, www.jimdunnam.com.
Dunnam says his campaign strategy is simple. He will focus on his accomplishments in District 57 and across the state.
"I'm not going to be making elaborate promises," said Dunnam. "If re-elected, I will continue to do what I've done for the past seven sessions -- represent the views of my constituents in Austin and worked to improve our community and our state."
Dunnam focuses on improving local schools and public safety, encouraging job growth and economic development, increasing access to affordable health care, and protecting the environment. Routinely named one of the Texas House’s most influential and powerful members, Jim currently chairs the Select Committee on Federal Economic Stabilization Funding, serves on the Committees on Transportation and Environmental Regulations, and is the leader of the 73-member Texas House Democratic Caucus.
"Since the Legislature wrapped up in May, I've been visiting with my constituents about the issues," said Dunnam. "I hope I will again get chance to return to Austin for another turn and continue advocating on their behalf."
