Represent us
What does it mean to have someone represent us at the national or state table of government? Shouldnât it include dialogue so both we and our elected representatives understand each otherâs thinking about important issues? Have we had such conversations with Sens. Richard Burr and Thom Tillis and Reps. Virginia Foxx, Ted Budd, Patrick McHenry and Kathy Manning? When was the last time one of them had town hall meetings with us, their constituents? If they donât know our perspectives will they represent us at the table?
I call on the Journal to explicitly request that each of them answers these questions and publish their responses: What is your position on what happened on Jan. 6 and what will you do about it? Is what former President Trump did that day an impeachable offense? If not, what qualifies as such? What is your plan for regular face-to-face meetings with your constituents?
