AHayes Republican

I am most like the representative Jo Ann Emerson (visit her web page at [|www.house.gov/emerson/]). This is because we have the same opinions on the same issues. Some of these issues are crime & drugs, education, and transportation.

**__Crime &Drugs__** – We both believe that drugs are very dangerous. One of the most highly addictive and dangerous is Methamphetamine. We agree that Meth labs everywhere need to be shut down. Anyone who sells or uses Meth needs to be arrested. All Drug users need therapy and help.


 * __Education__** - We both think that all good education starts at home. We also agree that it is a parent’s and a teacher’s duty to make sure that their child has good education and has access to the learning tools he or she needs. The No Children Left Behind Act Foundation was worth 300 million dollars, but it was well worth it if children get a good education.


 * __Transportation__** – One major thing when it comes to good transportation is safe roads. We both agree that it may cost a lot, but nothing is more valuable than someone’s life. Another thing that we both agree on is safe river transportation. Strongly built dams and locks are accentual to safety for people who travel by water. Safety should always come first.

__**Why YOU Should Vote for our Bill!**__ My bill is on Gun Control. People should vote for my bill because it would make our nation a safer place without taking the right to own a gun away. It would also help prevent cimes, murders, and other accidents that deal wth firearms. To visit my bill click on the link at the top of this page entitled "AHayes" and see for yourself how this bill could protect our country.
