The American Legion Medina Post #204 is retracting an unauthorized political advertisement in the June 2, 2019 Lake Country Pennysaver.  The American Legion does not endorse this or any political candidate.

While The American Legion is pleased to see candidates address issues of concern to America’s veterans, it is a nonpartisan organization. The American Legion Constitution prohibits the organization from endorsing any candidate for political office.
