Democracy Now!

Today, I wrote emails to my state representative and senator. I asked them to give higher education employees the same 3% cost-of-living adjustment as other state employees, instead of the proposed 2%.

The Professional Association of Campus Employees at UVU sent me an email and asked me to. And I said, Hey, I'm an MPA student! This is my type of thing! I'll do it.

I looked up what district I was in and who my representative and senator were. I browsed their websites. I found their email addresses, and I wrote them.

Then I went back to my homework.
