Kory's New Blog

Rep. Kory Holdaway has started a blog!

I think I've been blogging longer than any elected official in the U.S. -- "currently-serving elected official", I should say, since Ray Cox started blogging very early. (I'd love someone to fact check that claim). And, it is always exciting for me, when an elected official is willing to expose his thinking to public scrutiny and criticism (meaning comments enabled and unmoderated). I solidly believe that such openness will produce good results.

Kory will be an excellent addition to the blogosphere. He is courageous, thoughtful, and responsible, in advocating his positions. Kory and I both have strong passions for public education, and, often, we find ourselves approaching issues from different perspectives (and with significantly different constituencies), but I have learned much from him and, invariably, I enjoy working with him.
