It’s time for me to either shut up or get involved!
Welcome to V4ME 2024!
My name is Eric Mahaffy and I am an IBEW 01 Journeyman Electrician. I have been talking about politics since my early 20’s. I decided that I either needed to shut up or get involved, so here I am running for Congress in 2024. For the 10th congressional district of the State of Washington.
To me it is incredibly important to do what you can to leave things better than the way you found them.
Right now I believe there are groups of people who are trying to harm our country for many different reasons and they have realized that they can work together to accomplish their goals against the American citizens.
Some are doing this for profit and some are doing this for power and there are countries that are doing it to prove to their people that our form of government doesn’t work.
Nobody should profit off of our government and the taxpayers dollars. Being elected into a government position is not about pride and power, it is about humility, honor and working for the people, all the people.
Those that are screaming from the hilltops that this system is broken are part of the problem. Don’t let anyone convince you to let go of this amazing system of self-governing. We have fought hard for this and many Americans have died just to decide that some loud voice in the distance is right and maybe we should just give up. That’s not what Americans do, we can make this work, we have just got to start working together instead of letting them convince us to fight each other.
