Election Day 2022 - A New Beginning

 We have had two days in this century that brought us sadness, anger, and fear - 9/11 and Jan. 6.
Finally, we have a day to celebrate - November 8.
On that Election Day, the American voting public turned its back on political extremism and the negativism that was dragging us down.
We cast our ballots for thoughtful moderation, civil discourse, and our belief in democracy.
The act of voting was a reaffirmation of our trust in our system of selecting those who will carry out the will of the people.
This is not a proposal to declare “Nov 8” as a federal holiday. It is, however, a request that we pause, think, and recommit ourselves to working together to resolve our differences. We now have a departure date to show when we turned it around and began to create a better world for ourselves and our posterity.
