I’m writing to you about a candidate I feel strongly about. His name is Charlie Krogmeier.

He is running for the congressional seat in the third district. I’m a volunteer in his campaign office, so I’ve had a chance to get to know him. He is a man who believes strongly in family, education and the environment. These are issues I believe in, also.

Charlie also believes we measure the good of our society by the way we treat our elderly citizens.

This is why one of his priorities when elected will be to protect Medicare and Social Security from unfair funding cuts. Having a mother who receives both of these is one of the many reasons I put my faith and trust in Charlie’s abilities to work for our benefit in Congress.
