Tony Michetti, a candidate for the Pennsylvania House of Representatives in 2006, meets with small business owners in Watsontown, PA.

Included in the meeting are the owners of the Watsontown Cafe (where this picture was taken), the owner of the Watson Theater, one of only 300 single-screen cinemas still in operation in the US, and various members of the Chamber of Commerce. Like many towns, Watsontown has seen its once vibrant downtown slowly dissolve as big-box stores move in and young people move out. Michetti discusses their concerns and shares his own goals if he is elected.
