Legislative Update by Congressman Mike Ross

Giving Thanks
 
November 24, 2004
 
This week, Americans across this great country are gathering with family, friends, and loved ones to give thanks. Let us all remember how fortunate we are to live in a land where we are free to express our own thoughts and ideas, where we can use our talents and abilities to earn a better life and a brighter future for ourselves and for our families, and where all people are free to worship the religion of their choosing. 

I ask all Arkansans to join me in remembering not only our forefathers who formed this great nation, but also our men and women in uniform who have been called to duty and are serving in Iraq, Afghanistan, and in many other countries across the globe. Our thoughts and prayers will be with these brave Americans as they serve to protect our freedoms, and to fight for the freedoms of others. 

I hope you will not only give thanks for the blessing in your lives, but also reach out to a neighbor or fellow citizen in need, for that is the true spirit of giving.
