Dear Congressman Flake: I am very concerned that you are spending too much time working on behalf of D.C. residents by sponsoring legislation to create vouchers for the local school system there. We are mainly happy with your work on our behalf, but if you continue this legislative effort for D.C. you will seriously erode my confidence in your ability to do your job of representing the voice of Arizona in the Congress. I am also concerned because I believe in refraining from government waste. I am not necessarily an activist, and I don't know that much about local D.C., but I think that the federal government is too involved in the lives of people as it is. The federal government running a little city of 570,000 people? That seems a bit much. No matter what the political party, all Americans in these lean economic times despise government waste and want to get it out of our lives. And as for Congresswoman Norton, I hear that she is a smart, experienced and capable woman. Why can't she run the show for local residents? Isn't D.C. home to some pretty bright people - a lot of lawyers? Like I said, I am mainly concerned that you just take care of Arizona business, but we just fought a war in Iraq so that those folks could elect their leaders. Why not let folks in D.C. have some representation in the House and the Senate, some real voting representation. Support Congresswoman Norton's legislation on this issue, get rid of these D.C. subcommittees, and tell Congress to leave D.C. schools and D.C. period alone. Just get this nation back on track. Between domestic terrorism, Al Queda, North Korea, unresolved domestic matters and rebuilding Iraq, not to mention that Clean Elections law here in Arizona - your plate is full, Mr. Flake. Do America a favor and get all of your colleagues in the Congress to just leave D.C. to the locals. Here is a summary. 1. Tell your fellow Congressmen to 'leave D.C.', that is stop engaging in local D.C. affairs. You can do that at this website - www.leavedc.com. 2. Withdraw the legislation to create vouchers. It takes up time that belongs to us Arizonans. 3. Take the lead in the Congress and start a campaign to abolish each and every D.C. subcommittee in the United States Congress - the House and the Senate. 4. Tell Congress to support legislation in Congress right now to free D.C.by working to support legislation that promotes D.C. autonomy on fiscal, legislative and judicial matters and free Congress of the burden of Congressional governance of local D.C. Congress needs to work for its own constituents not local D.C. I want you out of the affairs of D.C. and back on track doing what we elected you to do: represent Arizona in Congress. Thank you.
