SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) - A local nonprofit leader formally announced his campaign for the United States House of Representatives on Thursday, August 28.
Bill Mawhiney, the Executive Director of the South Dakota Afterschool Network, has spent his career working to enhance nonprofits, afterschool programs, and rural communities in South Dakota.
“I’m not a career politician. I think folks are tired of politics. I’m running for Congress because for nearly two decades I’ve called South Dakota home, and I believe we deserve someone who understands our daily lives–someone who will always put people ahead of politics. I represent the families who have entrusted their children with the programs I’ve led and the communities who’ve never had someone like them at the table,” said Mawhin
