Let’s face it. Trust in government has never been lower. Cities are going broke, unemployment and debt are skyrocketing, prices for everything are going up, yet the taxman still wants more. The only thing growing is government.

Today people want solutions. They want common sense answers; results, not just activity. When investors put their own money at risk, they want a reward – a return on their investment.  Taxpayers want the same from government.  They’re tired of having their hard-earned cash taken from their own family checkbooks and squandered by unaccountable government.  Taxpayers want value for the money they pay government to operate. 

Heidi Shafer knows that. 

That’s why, as County Commissioner, she has:

Kept her 2010 campaign promise to reduce the tax burden on Shelby County taxpayers.

Chaired the Budget Committee to work hand-in-hand with the administration to craft a budget offering a tax decrease for 2014.

Established the first-ever Joint Purchasing Committee to deliver savings through joint purchases between Shelby County and Shelby County Schools.

Led in driving government efficiency through contingency-only purchasing partners.

Led Commission support for Electrolux and Mitsubishi programs that create jobs and opportunity for Shelby County citizens.

Promises Made. Promises Kept.
