“If ever the Time should come, when vain & aspiring Men shall possess the highest Seats in Government, our Country will stand in Need of its experienced Patriots to prevent its Ruin.”
Samuel Adams
Anyone can write to their representatives.
Anyone can, and should, be in contact with the public functionaries who represent you in government. It is important for everyone to write, email, call, or meet in person their representatives in government to admonish, encourage, or educate them. Ask them if they know what the purpose of government is. Make sure they understand that their role is to secure individual rights.
When you write, or talk, to your representatives, write one good thing they are doing and correct one bad thing, or educate them on one thing they should be doing. This balanced approach makes it easier for them to hear your constructive criticism.
If your public functionaries are doing a good job in the face of opposition, they need to hear that there are those who support them. They may also need your support by showing up at meetings on their side.
Our public functionaries need to hear from us! Even if you don’t do anything else, contact a government official, at some level, today.
