MLA for Airdrie-East, Angela Pitt announced via social media that she will no longer be the Chair of The Rajan Sawhney Campaign. The announcement was posted on her official Facebook profile on Sunday.

"It is time for me to step back into alignment with my constituents and my values. I am also refocusing my efforts to serve my constituents. Issues like Airdrie’s inadequate urgent care facility and the EMS crisis must be resolved and I am working hard to do that," Pitt wrote. 

She also added that she continues to believe in, 'a strong Alberta that will both stand up to Ottawa and respect individual freedoms.'

"Please know that Rajan is a wonderful, smart and compassionate person. She loves Alberta, [and] her community and works tirelessly for her constituents."
