A Letter From Bill
Hello everyone,
Now that we are in 2013, it is time to regroup and get back to work. Already we are being faced with very severe consequences from the November elections. At the Federal level, President Obama has become even more emboldened in his quest to turn the USA into a socialist state patterned after those in Europe. At the State level, several new initiatives are looming which will only increase the hardship felt by many of our neighbors and yourselves. Some of these include a whole slew of new taxes and fees to pay for transportation costs, which are estimated to be in the Billions, water quality reforms which will allegedly cost over $20 Billion dollars over the next 20 years, and even more restrictive gun laws which will lead to many court fights about their constitutionality, while not doing anything to protect anyone from the criminals among us.
As tempting as it might be to pack up and move away, or to turn away from politics altogether, I do not believe that is the right course of action at this time. Instead, I think we should rise up and let our voices be heard even louder. If an issue arises which really get s under your skin then get on the phone and call the lawmakers, the media, your friends and any Democrats you know. Write letters to the editor and letters to the lawmakers. Write blogs, tweet on twitter and share, share, share!
We lost this race, but we did make a go of it, and we did it at a relatively very low cost. It can be used as proof anyone can run, against anyone! Starting this spring, team up with Activate Worcester, and recruit candidates to fill all levels of our local government, in every town and city. Complaigning is not enough. You have to get more involved if you want anything to change, I really believe that.
No decision has been made yet whether I will run again, but I am still raising funds to close out any left over bills from my campaign. If you can help, it would be much appreciated. No matter what, I am not stopping. I will continue to write my blog , thelebeaupost, which you can find here, on Facebook , on line, onTwitter, or you can be added to the email list if you wish.
I hope all of you stay with us and continue to fight. It is more important now than ever!
