There’s a new candidate in the running for the Michigan House in the 79th District. It’s Maria Moen, and she’s running as a Republican to replace state Representative Kim LaSata. Moen is the vice president for the board of directors of The Curious Kids Museum, and also serves on the St. Joseph Public School Foundation Board. She’s previously worked as an adviser for the Berrien Community Foundation TEAM teen group, on the Basic Needs Committee for United Way, and on the Lake Michigan Catholic School Board. Moen tells us if she makes it to Lansing, she wants to focus on education, jobs, and public safety. Also running for the state House as a Republican in the 79th District is Troy Rolling of Benton Township.
