“We also agree how important an educated workforce is, as well as the critical need of developing of young people. I’m ready to get started now!”

“Ray has political aspirations. The clear-cut answer to what those aspirations actually are is to help people and to open doors for people that don’t have doors open.. It’s not like saying Ray wants to be a mayor, Ray wants to be a governor. Maybe he wants to run for Senate, maybe he wants to go back to his roots and help a small town become more empowered.”
