Chuck Pullen, the chair of the Libertarian Party of Lake County, has been appointed to and named Vice President of the St. John Economic Development Committee.
Pullen adds to the growing number of Libertarians serving their communities in elected and appointed office.
“Thank you to all of my fellow LPIN members for your advice, your training seminars, and encouraging fellow Libertarians to be active in our local communities,” Pullen said. “My goals are simple: to apply Libertarian principles to all of my decisions, and to maintain limited government and maximum freedom.”
Libertarians are frequently engaged in their local communities, where they can make the greatest impact. Pullen has long been engaged in local politics in Lake County, especially from his multiple stints as Lake County LP chair.
The St. John Economic Development Committee advises the town council and local boards and commissions on economic development ideas and projects.
“Chuck’s years of service and activism in Lake County have earned him the respect of the local leaders and this appointment,” Libertarian Party of Indiana chair Evan McMahon said. “Our values of limited government and promoting individual freedom often resonate with people in their communities.”
