Silence is not an option. I implore all South Carolina residents to please make their voices heard.

President-elect Trump has appointed several people with questionable backgrounds and abilities to fill extremely important and vital positions in our government. My question is: If these people applied for other jobs in our community, would they be hired? We must hold our government officials to as high standards as we do our citizens.

Please contact our senators and representatives and make your voice heard.

“We, the people,” are in charge. They work for us. Speak!
