The ability to participate in a free democracy is one of America's greatest attributes. For the last half decade, it has become apparent that there is democratic backsliding occurring in the United States. Instead of progressing, many states are regressing at the hands of some lawmakers, with antiquated attitudes and political ideas. The unwillingness of lawmakers to work together, continues to impact the lives of Americans on both sides of the isles. As well as those that are standing right in the middle.

The Constitution established the United States as a democratic republic. We must remember that as a democratic society, We the People govern ourselves and it is a republic because the government's powers is derived from the people that we elect to office. This means that our government - federal, state, and local are elected by voters to represent every citizen.
