I forgot to add this to my list w/ my Congressman. Click to find the contact information for your representatives - Congress and Senate.
Interestingly enough, I've been contacting mine a lot lately. The past 6 months have really changed my attitude on being a citizen. I love our country. I'm proud to be an American, not just when I sing the song, but every day. We fly our flag proudly, not just "because". I've decided to make my voice heard on lots of issues, from Drill Here, Drill Now to Small Business issues and local education issues.
I'm letting my children know what I am doing and why. How it impacts them and our family, our safety and our country. It's important that we stop sitting around complaining, but letting OUR officials know what we think about what they are doing. Regardless of what political party you are part of, Sarah Palin was right - they work for US!
Trust me, I feel better every time I write a letter or make a phone call!
