CRITICAL ISSUE #1POLITICAL ACTION
BROTHERS:FOR THE LAST EIGHT YEARS, A POLITICAL ACTION PROGRAM FOR OUR DISTRICT COUNCIL HAS BEEN VIRTUALLY NON-EXISTENT.
UNION STRENGHTH REQUIRES A CAPABLE AND STRONG LEADER WHO WILL ENGAGE IN ALL NECESSARY POLITICAL ACTION TO ACHIEVE A “BUY IN” FROM THE AFFILATED LOCALS. A DETERMINED LEADER WHO REPRESENTS US WELL ALL YEAR AND INSPIRES US TO EFFECTUATE TRUE CHANGE BY UTILIZING ALL OF OUR RELATIONSHIPS, CONNECTIONS, AND RESOURCES TO ACHIEVE OUR POLITICAL OBJECTIVES. TO DO SO THROUGH DELEGATION TO OTHERS DENIES THE AFFILIATES & WORKERS THE VERY POWER & INFLUENCE THEY DESERVE!
IF ELECTED, I'LL COMMIT TO A YEAR-ROUND POLITICAL ACTION PROGRAM THAT CONTINUES TO FOCUS ON THE CANDIDATE, CAMPAIGNS, AND ELECTIONS, WHILE ENGAGING THE ELECTEDS FOR PURPOSES OF BRINGING TOGETHER AND FACILITATING DISCUSSIONS AMONGST THE DEVELOPERS AND OTHER "STAKEHOLDERS" WITH REGARDS TO WORK OPPORTUNITIES TO MAKE THINGS HAPPEN INSTEAD OF WAITING FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN TO US!
THROUGH SUCH EFFORTS, WE WILL ALWAYS HAVE OUR VOICES HEARD AT THE EARLIEST STAGES OF PLANNING, DEVELOPEMENT, AND OPPOSITION RESEARCH, WHILE BEING AT THE TABLE YEAR-ROUND TO INFLUENCE OUTCOMES THAT AFFECT US. TO CONTINUE TO SIT BACK AND DELEGATE THIS RESPONSIBILITY IS NOT DETERMINED LEADERSHIP BUT RATHER A PASSIVE ACTION AT THE VERY MOST.
