“Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment
of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof;
or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or
the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to
petition the Government for a redress of grievances.”

First Amendment
U.S. Constitution

Contemplate the words of Private Robert L. Hoover, a
WWII POW, Bronze Star and Purple Heart recipient:

“LET THEIR VOICES BE HEARD.”
Soldiers Anthology

Our power of speech must be broadcast with respect for
others, self-confidence, self-respect, and dignity.

We have an obligation to be proactive. Take the
commitment to make a difference. All our Veterans
served to support and defend our liberty.

Do your part and carry their torch onward.

Our leaders must be held accountable to follow our
direction.

I have often been quoted as humbly saying:

“I continue to serve by speaking up and standing up for
what I believe is right and speaking out against what I
believe to be wrong.”
