82nd District

I am very disappointed with the new maps eliminating the 82nd district from Juniata and Mifflin counties. I have personally worked with the current representatives office and his predecessors. They have helped me to obtain grants and complete paperwork for state grants services for a local fire company and Wildland Fire Crew. These organizations are located in the middle of the district and serve many municipalities and our support to a state agency. The new district will put us at the edge of the new district. My family uses numerous services provided by the rep's office that are not easily available in our rural location. If we need to go to the new office it will be a minimum of 1 hour one way to get there which now we have 15 minutes for these services.
