*** Marilyn's Priorities When in Congress ***
If elected to Congress, these are some of the issues
that I will be fighting vigorously for. I feel very strongly about these,
and I think that our governmental bodies, including Congress, have
very unfortunately not paid sufficient attention to these issues,
if any. And when they did, they did not produce worthwhile
results. Our national legislative bodies should get back to the people,
and away from the powerful special interests, lobbying for more
corporate welfare and government contracts. Lets give the power
back to the people, and lets make Congress a little Greener !
