First, for those that don’t know, I live in Florida. For those that do know, Tallahassee is the state capital. This is where the state capitol is and also where our Governor lives. Now that I have schooled you all on some crazy Florida social studies, let me tell you what I am talking about. I have been working closely with some local government representatives here and they have been able to get me in front of some “importnat people” up in the state capitol. I am very excited and have a long list of things that I want to talk about and open up the dialogue about. If you live in Florida and have some concerns, please let me know what they are and I will try my best and get those covered as well.
This is very gratifying and shows that if you work hard at something, it will pay off. You have to be persistent as well. I literlly have been sending 1,000’s of e-mails a month to different representatives, hell ones in areas that I don’t even live in. I’m hoping that these meetings go well, and that we can use this as some momentum for DC and if so, I will be marching proudly up the national Capitol building.
Well folks, it is Friday, so this is going to be a short post, but, since it is Friday I must leave you with this clip.
Great job, Chris. Way to advocate and get the message out to your reps. That’s something I’ve been really pushing to do in the past couple years via the JDRF, and more recently through the ADA… all of it plays into the bigger picture, and hopefully those who need to hear our collective voice are starting to hear it. Good luck on your Tallahassee and ultimate D.C. work!
