Dear Congresswoman Stefanik: I served my country as a member of the United States Air Force from 1967 to 1971 and the Air National Guard for an additional two years. From 1980 to 2001 I was a Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Prisons employee, and from 2003 to 2015 I served my community as the town/village of Malone justice. I took several oaths of office to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States and our democracy. The same oath that you have taken as a member of Congress. I was extremely dismayed and disappointed with the Twitter comments that were posted pertaining to your decision to cast a vote objecting to the Electoral College results declaring President-elect Joseph Biden victorious in the presidential election.
