Dear Editor,

Over the past few years, we have written to federal, state, county and local government officials sharing our viewpoint and asking how these officials planned to vote on issues important to us.
We received concise and complete responses from Andrea Schroeder (Michigan House, District 43) and Pat Kittle (Independence Township Supervisor).
Their stands on the issues were reasonable and showed common sense. Neither answered using a form letter.
We thank you both for representing us so well!

Sincerely.
Nadia and Ron DeLorme
Independence Township
