Susan Kimberly, the former interim president of the St. Paul Area Chamber of Commerce, starts off her letter to the editor with a quote from Dick Cheney, “Freedom means freedom for everyone.”

Kimberly goes on to talk about how, as a Republican, opposing this amendment actually aligns with her party’s values. “We believe this amendment represents excessive government intrusion into the personal lives of Minnesotans and defies our belief in limited government.” She applauds General Mills and other Minnesota companies that have come out against the amendment.

Another example of individuals taking action and speaking out against this mean-spirited amendment. How about you? Have you thought about writing a letter to the editor of your local paper? If you do, please drop me a note and share it with me. I’d be happy to post some of the letters I receive!
