Legal Assistant to David C. Kolbe

David Kolbe, candidate for Disctrict 22, Indiana House of Representatives, has recieved the endorsement of Mayor Allan Kauffman, Goshen.

In a statement released Oct. 15, Kauffman stated: “I’ve known Attorney David Kolbe since the time I worked for NBS Office Supplies and Equipment and one of our retail stores in Warsaw. But only recently have I come to know him personally. While House district 22 doesn’t reach Goshen, the decisions he make affecting places like Warsaw, Winona Lake, Syracuse and other units of local government will also affect Goshen.

“I trust his judgement and have faith that the decisions he will make as State Representative will be supportive of local control, not only for cities, towns and counties, but also for our public schools and libraries. Moving local decisions to the State Legislature makes no more sense than moving state decisions to the federal government. Please support David Kolbe with your vote Tuesday, Nov. 4.”

Kolbe responded: “I am again humbled and honored to have the endorsement of Mayor Kauffman, a proven local leader. I share his vision for local control of government, schools, and libraries and look forward to advancing that vision in the Indiana House of Representatives.”
