Actions That Support Groups With A Responsibility For Keeping The Country Strong

 

There are certain groups whose jobs were specifically created to keep the country strong.  Strong in the sense of safe; strong in the sense of fair, useful and enforced laws; strong in the sense of educated citizenss; strong in the sense of talented leaders with the best interest of the country at heart. These groups include:

  • Elected officials
  • Firemen
  • Judicial officials and juries
  • Law enforcement individuals
  • Military personnel and veterans
  • K - 12 teachers 
By understanding the issues these groups face; by supporting and challenging them when appropriate; and by ensuring that these groups attract the most talented individuals and have the resources they need to carry out their functions, we can help them do a better job and make the country a better place to live.
