Find Your Legislator!

Everything that we do in our lives is affected by the decisions that are made at our nation’s capital or in our state capitals. Whether it be health, education, jobs, etc., we are affected by the decisions that are made by our elected officials.  So, why not have a voice in the decisions that they are making for us?

A lot of us sway away from politics because we often say that is no concern of ours: some may feel politicians are all crooked and are going to do whatever they desire. But I’ve found they do listen to us and most of them are good men and women that have the desire to serve their state or nation.  The majority of them are honorable people (even though there are always some bad apples!)

Whether you’re a Democrat or Republican or Liberal or Conservative, you elected the men and women that serve you.  I hope that you voted and realize your great right and honor you have as a voter in your state and the United States of America.

Get involved in the process and you will be surprised by the people that are serving you.  They may be your next-door neighbors, your fellow church members or someone you always see at the grocery store.
