This is my top interest. The only representative I know that I would trust to listen is Jeff Jackson, but he’s been gerrymandered out of his House seat and is running for NC State attorney general this year. I’ve never seen anyone as transparent and understanding of what his role is supposed to be. Gives me hope that there might be others like him.
I’m sure it’s at least that percentage that feels the same in our small mountain town in the southern Appalachian mountains.
Could it be that the world is beautiful and worth exploring, and the ability and means to travel has never been as accessible?
