Want to join the discussion on how best to protect retirement security? Can't stand to watch Bush tonight? From a
Cegelis campaign press release:
Christine Cegelis Vows to Protect Retirement Security
Connects with voters through "Conversations with Christine" discussion series
[...]
Given her firm belief that the job of Congress is to represent the voters, Christine wants to hear what the voters her district have to say about issues from retirement and jobs to education, the economy, and healthcare. Building on her successful "Coffee with Christine" program last cycle, Cegelis hopes to tap into local ideas on the issues people face every day.
Cegelis stated that, "Everyone's voice needs to be heard. Only by listening to people's stories and concerns will I be able to work with my neighbors in the 6th District to fulfill our dreams for our families and children."
