MCTA Annual Dinner
Former US Congressman Tom Rooney will be the guest speaker at the Martin County Taxpayers Association annual dinner. Having served as US Representative from 2009 to 2019, Mr. Rooney proved to be an unusual politician with his pragmatic and outspoken manner. An open critic of D.C. and its players, we predict he will continue, as a private citizen, to be a reliable voice of experience and honesty. Join us at the Kane Center on Weds. March 27, 2019. Cocktail hour from 6:00pm – 7:00pm, dinner served at 7:00pm. At $60.00pp you will have a wonderful opportunity to meet many of your local elected officials as well.
