Today Rich Haggerty visited us at our Luncheon Meeting. Rich was our Speaker and is running for State Representative to succeed Rep. Jim Dwyer. Rich is the son of Reading Rotarian Dick Haggerty. Rich works for the Chronicle and has been a great friend to Rotary, always helping us with getting information in the paper about our events. Rich is also a frequent visitor at our events and socials.
Rich has been on the Board of Alderman for 10 years and is in his third term as President of the City Council. Rich spoke about important public policy issues that our Rep would need to address, including local aid, supporting local economies, fiscal health, public health, transportation, opioid addiction and treatment.
