Vote for Pakootas this November

Letters to the Editor

What would an effective congressional representative do to improve lives in the 5th District?

Be available, answer letters personally, attend important rallies and EIS hearings concerning the oil and coal terminals, visit the homeless, attend city council meetings, visit schools and colleges, and live in the district instead of visiting the Spokane area a few times a year.

Cathy McMorris Rodgers votes straight along Republican lines and does very little to help our people. Instead, her recent activities include cavorting with the rich and powerful at a weekend retreat at Sea Island, Georgia, sponsored by the American Enterprise Institute, and voting to protect corporations like Monsanto from lawsuits, such as the one the city of Spokane has filed concerning the illegal dumping of PCB’s in the Spokane River.

This coming fall, it is time to remove her from office, and vote for a real representative that cares about the people of Spokane and District 5, Joe Pakootas. He lives here, his family lives here and he will advocate for the people.

Vote for Pakootas, Democrat. The absent McMorris Rodgers has lost touch with our people. She has represented us too long in Congress (12 years) with minimal results.
