Transcription

Several years ago when I formed my residential design company, I had problems finding people in Ohio with money to spend on home improvements. Today, thanks to President Reagan's economic policies, people can now afford new homes and home improvements, ensuring the continuing growth of my company and others in the construction industry. All across the Midwest, business is growing, creating jobs. We're working again and building for a better future. Let's keep Reagan working for us in November.
