February 17, 2010
The Glassman for Arizona Senate exploratory committee is continuing to gain momentum as Democrats, Independents, and gridlock weary Republicans take an interest in what we have to say. The simmering civil war between the followers of the two GOP candidates only helps us; people want simple, executable solutions to the problems they face and they want them now, not after months of foot dragging.

He helped push through one of the West’s most progressive rainwater ordinances that, starting in mid-2010, requires new businesses to meet at least half their landscaping water needs with rain.

November 15, 2009
Sisters Melissa Shaner and Jennifer McCaig knew if they held on to their prom dresses long enough, they would one day find a use for them. And so they did: Shaner and McCaig started Cinderella’s Closet in May to distribute prom dresses and shoes to high school juniors and seniors. The sisters came up with the idea about four years ago, and it took off in March after Shaner had lunch with City Councilman Rodney Glassman.
