*** Check the Issues page for the 2009 Legislative Session Synopsis ***

We are beginning our summer months with both anguish and anticipation -- anguish over the fact our majority party is taking us down a road that will put our children and grandchildren in debt for years to come, and anticipation over the fact that many of our citizens are "wising up" and seeing that big government is NOT the answer.

All around the district people are coming up to me and asking "what can I do?"  They are getting tired and frustrated at seeing their personal freedoms erode....especially at such a rapid rate.  I tell them all the same thing.....GET INVOLVED.  Write letters to the editors, talk to your county commissioners, be at school board and hospital board meetings.  Don't expect someone else to do the work for you.  If you can't be actively involved yourself, then support those who can.

Keep the lines of communication open.  Call me. Write me. Send an email.  Let me know what you are thinking and how we can work together to effect a REAL change. 

You can now follow me on Twitter.  Go to www.twitter.com and look for BarbBaileyWA10.

It is an honor to serve you.
