Prior to joining the Legislature, Dillon served as Kent County Commissioner. He voted against every tax increase and opposed increasing fees for basic services. He also demanded that local companies get preference for local government contracts because he believes our tax dollars should create jobs for our workers. The father of twin boys, Dillon is committed to building a stronger, more prosperous Michigan where our children can reach their full potential.
