Bill Dahlin: Improve our state, so we can keep our young people here

Sheridan businessman Bill Dahlin called a focus on the Constitution "a fundamental necessity"--specifically, the freedoms it grants and the pursuit of happiness. He also highlighted the economy. "Our economy touches all of us," he said. "Our challenge is to improve our state, so we can keep our young people here." Dahlin recommended relying on constitutional principles, while thinking "outside the box," saying the state needs to consider industrial hemp as a viable option.
