Michelle Oyola McGovern’s plan to protect our Ag Reserve & environment earns her major endorsement

PALM BEACH COUNTY, FLORIDA, UNITED STATES, August 16, 2022 /EINPresswire.com/ -- We are proud to announce that West Boynton Beach Community Leader Beth Rappaport endorsed Michelle Oyola McGovern for Palm Beach County Commission, District 6!

Here’s what she had to say about why she is supporting Michelle:

“As I write this, voters across District 6 are casting their ballots for whom they think is best to represent them on the Palm Beach County Commission.

For me, the choice is clear - Michelle Oyola McGovern is the best prepared and has my full support!

Michelle's background in environmental stewardship has prepared her to navigate the land use challenges we face today. As a community advocate who has always fought to protect our western communities and our sensitive lands, I trust Michelle McGovern to stand with us and ensure our County makes smart decisions about the future of the Ag Reserve.

Michelle knows that when we work together, we get the best outcomes. She will ensure all residents are involved in long-range decision making, closely monitor future development proposals, and hold builders accountable for their words and actions. Michelle gets it - new development puts a strain on our communities' roads, infrastructure and more. She'll make sure our community groups and associations are listened to and our ideas are acted upon.

I am one of the over 55 local leaders that support Michelle because we know she is the best candidate for the job. Michelle Oyola McGovern will be a Commissioner for ALL residents in District 6!

Join Team Michelle today and remember to vote for Michelle Oyola McGovern on, or before, August 23!”

Michelle Oyola McGovern has over two decades of policy, governmental, and community experience. Michelle began her career in public service with the Florida Department of Children and Families. Her career led her to work for U.S. Senator Bill Nelson, first in his D.C. office and then as his regional Director for the Palm Beaches and the Treasure Coast (first ever in the region by any FL U.S. Senator). Michelle's job involved meeting with community and local elected leaders to discuss policy initiatives and identify federal dollars to support local projects. A proactive leader, Michelle was promoted to serve as Senator Nelson's Statewide Director overseeing a team of 10 regional directors and staff across seven regional offices throughout Florida. Michelle worked in these public advocacy roles with Senator Nelson for 18 years.

Michelle now serves as the Director of Government and Community Relations for a major healthcare system. She focuses on creating, guiding, and promoting positive relationships. Her work to help local leaders and the community navigate important health and medical issues over the last two years has provided Michelle with essential experience that will prove critical as our county deals with the impacts of COVID-19 and other issues.

Michelle also currently serves - or has served – with numerous organizations, including past President and Member of the Board of Directors of the Forum Club of the Palm Beaches; founding Member and first President of West Palm 100; past President and Member of the Board of Directors of SunFest; Trustee of the Chamber of Commerce of the Palm Beaches; President's Circle Member (Trustee) for the Wellington Chamber of Commerce; and Trustee for the Central Palm Beach County Chamber of Commerce. Michelle was most recently Treasurer of The Homeless Coalition of Palm Beach County, and Chairperson of its Mayor’s Ball, and she is the Chairwoman of the Palm Beach County Advisory Commission on Women, where she continues her advocacy efforts on behalf of Palm Beach County women and girls.

Michelle is a proud mom to two daughters and wife to John, Councilman for the Village of Wellington. Michelle comes from a large Puerto Rican family; she is the oldest of four sisters. A trailblazer in her own way, Michelle was the first in her family to attend college. Her parents instilled a passion for service and the importance of hard work, honesty, and integrity in everything she sets out to accomplish. Michelle, John, and their two daughters live in the Village of Wellington, Palm Beach County, FL.
