Former President Ronald Reagan said:

“On this occasion, let us also remember the freedoms and the sacrifices that have made our abundance possible. We are heirs to a precious legacy, one that has taken centuries to build, and we must forever recognize that its preservation and increase are our glad task and solemn responsibility.” 

Enjoy the day with friends and family, the end of summer is here before you know it.

But remember, our National, State and local governments desperately need a change in leadership. Single party government hasn't served us well. Folks are demonstrating at School Boards and being ignored or insulted. Illegal immigration is exhausting BLUE cities the way it's targeted RED cities and states for years. You can't afford higher taxes, higher prices and increased energy costs.

You see a decline in public safety, a decline in reading and math scores, a decline in civility on both sides that makes it harder to recover from inflation, international upheaval and domestic unrest.

With an Important election right around the corner we need to focus and work for the best candidates who will work for America.

Its Labor Day. Lets go to work!

On August 26, Montgomery Perspective reported, “I have been told that the county council’s Public Safety Committee will hold a work session on the Freedom to Leave Act next month.  The committee’s members are Sidney Katz (chair), Dawn Luedtke and Kristin Mink, the latter of whom cosponsored an earlier Jawando anti-traffic stop bill.  Given the administration’s position as well as opposition to Jawando’s bill by the police union and MCGEO, this council committee session will make for interesting viewing.” We urge you to make your voice heard (see below).

Chery Riley is a native of Montgomery County and a strong voice of opposition to Representative Jamie Raskin, her opponent for Maryland’s District Eight seat in Congress. No stranger to politics, Cheryl ran for the Montgomery County Council in 2022. And though she didn’t win that race, she came out with a winning attitude of staying the course to fight the Democrat’s current monopoly in MOCO and the state of Maryland. Cheryl currently owns a public relations practice and resides in Bethesda. Below she answers questions in her own words about her compelling reasons to run and what her priorities would be as a member of Congress.

Labor Day Weekend Report

California Dreamin’

Nothing California Democrats do makes any sense unless we understand their primary motive. In short, as woke liberals, they will do nearly anything to feel morally superior. And that feeling has fueled their otherwise inexplicable defense of the indefensible. The latest example of this terrible woke pathology occurred Tuesday in California, where, according to KCRA-TV in Sacramento, the State Senate voted to include illegal immigrants in California’s first-time homebuyer’s program, and it did so despite the fact that the program has no money.

EPIC CONVERSATIONS THE GROWTH AND INFRASTRUCTURE POLICY (GIP).

SHOULD WE INCENTIVIZING DEVELOPERS AND OTHER PLANNING RECOMMENDATIONS?

The County’s GIP is another piece of the puzzle that will move Thrive 2050 from a vision to reality. The GIP is the Planning Board’s guide to ensuring the County has adequate infrastructure, such as schools, transportation and storm water management, to support growth, but are those needs being met? And with Planning acknowledging there’s "insufficient funding to implement infrastructure recommendations in master plans" what does this mean to you and your community?

Join us for an in-depth conversation with Planners: Darcy Buckley and Lisa Govoni. Thursday, September 5,2024 7-8:30pm

The movie "Reagan" is a reminder of how principled and determined leaders - Ronald Reagan, Margaret Thatcher, and Pope John Paul II - brought an end to the Cold War and freed the peoples of Eastern Europe from communism.  I recommend the movie especially to younger generations unaware of the dangers of Communism and how the tactics used by today's radical Left in politics, on campuses and on our streets are not new. They are the same Communist tactics we fought against in the Cold War.
