Candidate Statement: Laura Casperson ANC 5B07

I've posted several statements from ANC Candidates, and here's one more. As always, the mere posting of the statements does not constitute an endorsement, but is instead merely offered as a public service. That said, I am endorsing this particular candidate (I'm only make endorsements in 5B races this year due to some time commitment issues on my end).
