We must remain vigilant to ensure our representatives represent The People and abide by constitutional and common sense values.
Attending (online or in-person) and participating in your local community meetings is extremely important in keeping our leaders accountable.
"We the People" are the watchdog on these Tax Districts and Committees!
Each Tax District has a "term of office" and an odd number of representatives (so there are no tie votes!)
Additionally, we want to support our brave Republican leaders in these roles.
Please develop a personal relationship with our R leaders. (Take friends with you and make a fun evening out of it!)
