Common Goals Inspire Rallies

To the Editor:

On Sundays since March 1, Americans have rallied on the La Grange Square for their democracy.

In November, we walked into that booth on that sacred day of voting. Some of us voted as Republicans, some as Democrats and others as independents or undecided. We all said how we want America to be governed.

Each one of us wants: …….affordable health care that makes research available for cancer, other diseases and treatment clinics staffed with medical personnel across urban and rural America.

…….just treatment and opportunity for all people.

…….governance, protection and inspiration as in the Constitution, Bill of Rights and Declaration of Independence, all being guaranteed through the American court system of justice.

…….to buy affordable food.

…….to read truthful, unbiased news. …….to rely upon elected officials to carry out the will of their constituents.

…….to breathe clean air and to drink clean water.

…….to pay our fair share of taxes for the support of important community, state and federal infrastructure that includes fire and police protection, roads, water, sewers and other essential services.

……..to support veterans who have fought for this country.

……..to support equitable education for all children who are the future.

……..to treat veterans with respect.

……..to conserve natural resources.

……..to live a life that sustains the planet, as in limiting plastics and styrofoam.

……..to enjoy the natural environment preserved in our national parks and government lands.

Americans vote for these common goals that also inspire rallies.
