Congressional candidate promises 'Big Dog' approach

SHELBY

Former Forest City Postmaster Jeff Gregory wants to see true representation for the 10th Congressional District.

"It's time for the people of the 10th District to be heard and seriously represented," he said.

"I think that we need to take a 'Big Dog' approach for our district. I'm not afraid of getting on the front porch of Congress and barking loud for our people."

Gregory is a Cleveland County resident. He understands getting elected as a Democrat will be difficult.

"Sure there will be many other candidates running for this seat who will have endless pockets of money," he said. "However, I don't need money to win for the people. I need their trust and confidence in me."

Gregory said he owes no allegiance to anyone but God, family, the people of the 10th District, and the United States of America.

"Special interest monies will have no home in my pockets," he said.

Gregory is a retired former U.S. postmaster who lives in the New House community.

After his discharge from the Air Force in 1981, Gregory worked for Piedmont Airlines. In 1983, he began working for the Postal Service.

"This seat in Congress is not about party, it is about helping the people, listening to the people, and truly caring about what happens to the people of this district.

"In the past, too many politicians from our district have stood very quietly on the sidelines, not even making the effort to bring new economic growth, jobs, effective health care and crucial lower taxes to our area."
