An Open Letter to Elizabeth Warren

You are not my technically my Senator. You're from Massachusetts, I'm from New York. In many ways though you are the representative for all of us, who feel "we the people" have been forgotten. Too many of your colleagues fail to realize that they were elected to serve every citizen of this country regardless of race, creed, gender, or socio-economic status. They treat us instead like we are servants of both them and the wealthiest of their campaign donors.

During election times we hear many promises that this candidate and that candidate will be sure to fight against this perversion of our founding fathers principles, but as money from those who want to preserve the status quo starts trickling in to their own campaign coffers too many of their voices get softer and softer until they are less than a whisper on the wind. All we see from them is their names on more and more bills that are disastrous for our country, it's people, the world, and environment under the convenient cover of bipartisanship.

Thank You Senator for not being one of them. Thank you for not letting yourself be silenced. Thank You for continuing to confront and remind each and everyone of them of their oaths of office and their obligations to all of the American people not just a few.

I stand in Admiration and Gratitude!
