Running for: Michigan State House, District 69

Jasper “Jaz” Martus is a lifelong resident of Genesee County, Michigan. He is running for election to the Michigan

House of Representatives District 69 with the aim of leaving future generations with a solid foundation for economic, educational, and infrastructural growth and development. Martus has volunteered for elected officials up and down the ballot since his mother first took him door to door for Barack Obama in 2008. Martus has experience working in both federal and local levels of government, formerly serving under Congressman Dan Kildee to help with medicare and social security programs, and overseeing legislation and constituent services for the Michigan Legislature. He holds a degree from James Madison College at MSU with a degree in International Relations and a minor in World Religions.

According to Martus, the purpose of government is to serve the people and, growing up in Genesee, Michigan, he knows all too well how often this is forgotten.
