"...our local area has always been special to me.
It's important that I continue to work hard and represent the needs of Ryan residents, in order to ensure practical benefits are delivered for our local community.
Clearly, my job is not only to speak out in Canberra but to do what I can here at home."

Ryan's Sport Achievers Recognised
Outstanding local athletes, coaches and sporting teams were recognised in a special presentation ceremony with Commonwealth Sport Achievement Awards presented by Federal Member for Ryan, Michael Johnson, last week.
The ceremony, held at Nudgee Junior College, saw former Olympian, Mark Stockwell, attend and address some of the awards to 36 local recipients of the award.
"The office received so many nominations for local residents who have given so much to the Ryan community through their contributions to sport. It was a very tough decision to narrow it down to 36 recipients," Mr Johnson said.
