Also know I respect elected officials like you who are willing to face the challenge of balancing family life with time spent in Columbus representing our district.//\\ \\ //In addition, I applaud you on your success with the %%__%%%%__%%%%__%%bill and %%__%%%%__%%%%__%% bill this past year. I was in support of this legislation and am satisfied the passage of such bills helped forward conservative values in Ohio which are important to me.//\\ \\ //I write to you today to promote the Convention of States (COS) movement in Ohio and ask for your support in the passage of our resolution HJR-3 this General Assembly. For nine long years, we have been urging the Ohio legislature to invoke Art V of the U.S. Constitution, joining the 19 states who have passed a COS resolution thus far. //\\ \\ //It is clear to me that Washington is broken. It is in the hands of people who do not share my values of freedom and liberty. Holding a convention limited to proposing amendments is the best way I’ve found to respond to our overbearing Federal government and bring power back into the states. Please vote HJR-3 out of committee to allow a full vote on the floor of the House.//\\ \\ //Thank you so much for your consideration on this immensely important opportunity to promote liberty in our country.//\\ \\ //Sincerely,//\\ \\ //First name Last name,//\\ //House District 48//\\ //Your address//\\ \\ **Please mail your letter to: **\\ \\ Rep.
