The monthly "In Their Words" column features prominent
politicians speaking directly to our readers on issues of concern to the Jewish
community. By giving candidates the opportunity to be heard on these issues, we
hope you will be better informed voters. Moreover, once the candidates take
office, these interviews will remain online as a permanent record of their
promises to our community.
