Teague endorsed by News May 12, 2008 - No reporter cited

Last week, Larry Teague picked up an endorsement from the SEAPAC which is the political arm of the Arkansas State Employees Association.

Today, Teague is being endorsed by the Nashville News for the Senate District 20 position.

Teague is running against a fine man in Scott Sullivan, but Teague never lost his State Representative seat. He was unable to run for another term due to term limits.

Teague continued to serve in the office of Senator Jim Hill to stay informed of the issues that would be facing Arkansas for the next several years.

Teague is qualified to be our next senator because he has a record of service to the citizens of Southwest Arkansas.

He served on the Nashville City Council for five years, so he understands the problems facing small rural communities.

Teague was our state representative from 1997-2002. Following his service in Little Rock, he remained active in the communities surrounding Nashville and Howard County.

Teague is committed to issues that effect everyone in Southwest Arkansas.

He plans to continue the work started by Hill and other dedicated senators.

Teague hopes to help make I-49 a reality in our lifetime. He will work to make sure that Arkansans receive the health care they need and tackle difficult issues facing the senior citizens of Arkansas.

He also understands the necessity of jobs in our area. Teague is a local business owner and sees the problems facing small businesses. He also understands the need for more well paying jobs in our area. Teague will work to keep industries that are in Southwest Arkansas here to provide job opportunities for the
future.

Teague also recognizes the position of the government in stabilizing the economy.

Teague will work hard to help every citizen of Arkansas live the American Dream.
We are thankful for the service of Scott Sullivan, but it is time that Teague resume the service that he started and continue to move Southwest Arkansas forward.
