Ray H. Williams Jr. Lander County Commission District #3

Thank You Voters

I would like to express a sincere "Thank You" to the voters of Lander County for the votes of confidence that were cast for me in the Lander county Election on November 4th. I look forward to serving on the Commission on a day to day basis, and to do my level best to serve the interests of the people of Lander County for the next 4 years.

I believe that Government has become too big. It taxes too much, spends too loosely and regulates our lives too intrusively.

The strongest most powerful government is that which is closest to the people.
