Mike Oliverio for Congress
We have tried to outline what we see as the major topics of this campaign and the issues that affect the day-to-day lives of those in Northern West Virginia. From jobs to healthcare and energy to education, I have worked for the past two full decades on matters that touch people every day.
I am a full-time businessman, a U.S. Army veteran and I’ve been a West Virginia State Senator for the past 16 years, following two years as a member of the House of Delegates.
I am running for the United States Congress because I believe that the work I have accomplished in the West Virginia Legislature and in the United States Army has prepared me for the challenges facing this country. On May 11, I ask for your vote for the Democratic nomination for Congress.
