Hey there, Mikey and everyone who contributed to this letter to the city of Monument; it is well done! I appreciate that, though I knew that it would be well-written. Concise and direct, it tells the city of Monument that they need to address this matter and gives relevant recent case law. I’ve been following Americans United for Separation of Church and State for so many years and still receive communications like this so I can keep up with what is happening, what I need to be aware of with regard to civilian matters. Thank you to the MRFF legal staff for putting this together so quickly. As a veteran in this county, I appreciate you and all your family deals with in the battle to ensure my rights and the rights of other service members, DOD civilians, and veterans in government matters-especially here in our county with the religious right and the USAFA’s ongoing violations. When I was in uniform my political voice was limited, but I can use my voice as a veteran. That said, it is my duty to use that voice-which is why the MRFF is so valuable. Thanks to you and your family for being so strong for the rest of us!

I’m all in with MRFF!
