Ledger Letters

Clarion Ledger - Letter to the Editor - Consider Gregg Harper as 'our voice' in Washington - It is my pleasure to commend to the voters of the 3rd Congressional District an outstanding candidate for Congress. Gregg Harper is a man of intelligence and integrity. He is dedicated to his family, to his church, to his profession, and to this great country. Gregg and I share concerns about the moral, ethical, cultural, fiscal and security-related problems of our nation. I believe that he is committed to taking a stand for our conservative principles and to being an eloquent voice, a tireless worker, and a consistent voter in Congress. I hope readers will consider this outstanding citizen as our voice in Washington. - Roy J. Fountain, Forest

Clarion Ledger - Letter to the Editor - Ross will best represent all residents of 3rd District - Charlie Ross is the best candidate for the 3rd Congressional District. Charlie is seeking to replace Chip Pickering, who is not seeking re-election. I urge readers to take a look at Charlie for this seat. He is a graduate of the Air Force Academy and a veteran, having flown with the Mississippi Air National Guard in Operation Desert Storm. Charlie is also a graduate of Harvard Law School and has served in the Mississippi legislature. Readers will find that he is for all the same good, conservative government that we identify with. Charlie is anti-illegal immigration and will fight to strengthen our military. His office will also be an advocate for military retirees' and veterans' issues. I would urge all who live in the 3rd District to vote for Charlie Ross. - Jim Whittington, Laurel

Clarion Ledger - Letter to the Editor - We need Charlie Ross in 3rd Congressional District - I truly love my country and always take great pride in researching and selecting the best candidate to represent me, my children and my state in Washington. I have absolutely no doubt that Charlie Ross is the only candidate capable and prepared to serve us in the 3rd Congressional District seat being vacated by Chip Pickering. The runoff election is April 1, and citizens must go vote! Every single vote is important and each reader's vote for Ross will ensure that we send a true public servant to Congress. Ross' unequaled experience includes 11 years in the Mississippi Legislature, where he chaired the Senate Judiciary Committee, authored tort reform, Jessica's Law, Megan's Law and helped balance the state budget. I am secure in knowing that Charlie will promote strong national defense and strengthening the military. As an Air Force Academy graduate, he has served our country as a military veteran, a U.S. Air Force fighter pilot and as Mississippi Air National Guard, Desert Storm active-duty pilot. Other crucial issues that are important to Ross are bringing jobs to Mississippi, lower taxes, economic growth, protecting our 2nd Amendment rights, securing our borders, making our cities safe and working as an advocate for veterans' affairs. The facts are crystal clear - Ross is the only candidate who actually has the experience to accomplish any of these goals. His extraordinary wife, Sharon, is a tremendous asset to Charlie. Please vote for Charlie Ross - the man we need in our U.S. Congress! - Jena Thompson, Meridian
