“Dear Ms. Gondeiro, Thank you for helping me successfully opted out of the SEIU 721 Union. Without yours and the Freedom Foundation’s help, I would still be coerced into paying for a service that I am powerless to negotiate with. Your help has sent a clear message to the union that its members still have choices and that all "People Want To Be Free." It also renewed my faith in our democratic system that justice is not completely broken. For your assistance, I am grateful and wish you and the Freedom Foundation continued success in fighting to give back the freedom to the common person. Gratefully yours.”
– George

Ironically, I am 80% democratic, but I want to allow my money to select the candidate I choose – not them!
