CONWAY — Democrat Mindi Messmer cares about people and the environment and believes the two are intertwined. The first-term state representative from Rye believes she’s the candidate who can best reach across the aisle in Washington, D.C., to make the country a better and safer place — it’s why she’s seeking the Democratic nomination in the 1st Congressional District.

Messmer was in Conway on Thursday, making campaign stops at the Gibson Center for Senior Services and attending an editorial board at the Sun. She was slated to attend the Conway Democratic Congressional Forum at Kennett Middle School on Thursday night but had to change her plans at the last minute.
