We Are The Government

We are the government. It is acceptable for us to provide whatever level of services for ourselves collectively that we see fit. If we decide collectively that the time for anything to be done it will be. Currently the increase in the minimum wage favored by the vast majority of Americans is stalled in the Senate because they think we are not paying attention. Prove them wrong. Write you Senator and let him know that you urge him to support this legislation, clean with no amendments. Do not just send an e-mail they get ignored. Do not send your letter to his DC office it will never get there thanks to the regulations in response to the Anthrax scare. Send it to his office in your state. A staffer will read it, and if it is hand written it will be taken into account.
