Reichert doesn’t listen to constituents

In the democratic republic in which we live, the citizens who are eligible to vote cast their ballots for the person(s) who will represent them in Congress. Our representative in Congress, Rep. Dave Reichert, needs to listen to the voices of his constituents to find out what they are concerned about.

I have written to Reichert a number of times and I have never received a reply from him or his office staff about the issues I mentioned. Any reply I have ever received from Reichert’s office always spoke to committees he is serving on or some other issues totally unrelated to my letter.

So I ask the question, Does Rep. Reichert really represent me? It is time for a change to someone who will listen and respond. Jason Ritchie is my choice for Congress in the Eighth Congressional District.
