Chet Edwards For Congress

Working Hard for Madison County

• In 2007, Chet secured $117,000 to replace the roof at St. Joseph's Hospital in Madisonville. And, as a member of the Rural Health Care Coalition, Chet is working to protect rural hospitals from hurtful budget cuts.




• Chet secured $100,000 to install lighting at Madisonville’s athletic fields, so the facilities can be used for Little League games and other community activities in the evenings. As the father of two young sons, Chet strongly supports projects that encourage children to be active outdoors.








• Chet is fighting to save vocational education funding and opposes taking tax dollars away from public schools to subsidize wealthy private schools.




• Chet supports legislation that will bring affordable high-speed Internet access to our rural communities.
