Letters: Stop complaining and do this

file

After 37 years of simply voting and complaining, I decided to do something about elected officials. I learned firsthand that you don’t have to have experience as a political activist or a political science degree to help make changes in our government. I became part of the grassroots campaign to elect Evan McMullin, a true conservative, as president. Out of his campaign, the New Conservative Movement was born.

If you are frustrated by the lack of representation by true conservatives or the apparent disregard for our Constitution at any level of government, if you’d like to have a positive impact on your community and country, if you’d like to learn what you can do to help bring about change, contact me at deecurlee@gmail.com.
