A reminder from our
IRWC president, Joyce Howard
Our GOP gains in the U.S. Congress and in State Houses
around the Nation must not lull us into thinking things will be great from now on. It is our opinion that in future, all elected representatives from our City to D.C. must be watched,
coached and reminded that we expect smaller Constitutional Government. If “Big Brother or Big Sister” is watching us…we will be watching them right back and turning out of
office those who do not uphold their campaign promises.
“A government big enough to give you everything you want
is strong enough to take away everything you have.” –Thomas Jefferson
