Dear Friends,
Here at the campaign, we’re wrapping up the final week of politicking before Christmas. We have had a busy and exciting week, with events and fundraisers throughout the district. The last five weeks have come and gone quickly, and once we get into the New Year, the election will be right around the corner.
Usually in this weekly email, I talk about the issues that voters discuss with me on our travels. There are many important issues to talk about, and we’ll get back to them come January. Christmas is always a special time of year. It offers us an opportunity to spend time with our friends and family and reflect on the blessings we have. It’s also a time to give special consideration to those who sacrifice and do so much for all of us.
Today, I’d like to take a step back from politics to keep in mind the brave military men and women who are serving our nation and their families here at home. They are our new generation of heroes who have volunteered to defend freedom in far away places just like the generations that preceded them. We thank them for their service, we honor them for their commitment, and we pray for their safe return.
I’d like to bring to your attention a program called America Supports You, run by the U.S. Military, that connects citizens with opportunities to help the troops. By visiting their website, America Supports You, you can learn how to give back to those serving us.
We should also recognize those who serve others in charitable and good will organizations. Thousands of Mississippians volunteer each year for charities that help the neediest among us. Through their service, they remind us that we are a great country, because at heart, we are a good and decent people.
Laura and I wish you and yours the best this Christmas season, and we hope to see you soon.
Yours truly,
John Rounsaville
