“In the face of our common dangers, in this winter of our hardship, let us remember these timeless words. With hope and virtue, let us brave once more the icy currents, and endure what storms may come. Let it be said by our children's children that when we were tested we refused to let this journey end, that we did not turn back nor did we falter; and with eyes fixed on the horizon and God's grace upon us, we carried forth that great gift of freedom and delivered it safely to future generations.” --President Barack Obama
Across the country, and throughout our state, this winter of hardship is bringing heart ache and challenges to our communities. We face an economy in trouble, while citizens that are dependent on vital public services like HIV/AIDS treatment face an uncertain future. But we have hope! As President Obama reminds us, we must brave these difficult days ahead and stand up for one another.
One important way for everyone to make their voice heard is by participating in the AIDS Awareness and Action Day in Olympia on February 18th. This important event will connect everyday citizens with the elected officials who represent you. As a representative, I depend on my constituents to tell me what is important for our community.
In the final analysis, our children and grandchildren will look back at us in decades to come, and they will measure our response to these trying times. I am confident that they will see our courage and our determination, and they will see that we carried that bright torch of freedom safely to the next generation.
