House District 59 Residents,

As a lifelong farmer and rancher in Southwest Colorado and someone who has proudly served as the Representative for House District 59, I know the importance of strong, principled leadership for our communities. I have known Naomi Riess for many years, and I can say with confidence that she is exactly the kind of leader we need.

Naomi has always stood by agriculture and our rural way of life. I personally witnessed her dedication when she helped the La Plata County Farm Bureau resolve challenges that some of our members were facing with the State Land Board regarding state land leases. Her knowledge, persistence, and genuine care for the people she serves made a real difference.

Naomi Riess is not only a supporter of agriculture—she is a supporter of families, local businesses, and the values that make Southwest Colorado strong. I wholeheartedly endorse her for House District 59 Representative and encourage others to stand with her as well.
