State Representative Jim Slezak is serving his first term in the Michigan House of Representatives. He represents the 50th House District, which includes the cities of Davison and Burton, as well as Genesee, Richfield and Davison townships.
As State Representative, Slezak's priorities include:
- Providing a World-Class Education – Slezak's highest priority will be to ensure that our children are receiving a quality education. Slezak will be a tireless supporter of efforts to strengthen our schools.
- Strengthening and Transforming our Economy – Slezak will work to create jobs and gainfully employ our superior work force, while attracting new businesses that will grow our economy and help us retain Michigan's young talent.
- Fixing our Roads – Slezak will make certain that Genesee County receives its fair share from Lansing to repair our crumbling roads and bridges.
A graduate of Yale University with a degree in political science, Slezak's family have been business owners in the community for over thirty years. As a successful local businessman, Slezak knows there are better ways to deal with Michigan's economic problems. He will work with his colleagues in the Legislature to develop plans to streamline our state's budget, attract new jobs and revive our economy.
Slezak and his wife, Kathleen, live in Davison Township and have three children, Bridgette, Gabrielle and Jack.
