“Rolex watches seized from drug lords. Homes confiscated from tax cheats. Blackhawk helicopters the military no longer needs. The federal government is auctioning off all this — and more. The “more” often means mundane things like office chairs and shredders and mysterious things like “swamp cooler pads” and a “Tel Diaphram Trash Pump.”…. Elisabeth Leamy, the Washington Post

Intro Video

The office of your elected officials can be the best place to turn to get free help.  They are in the best position to be aware of the free help and services that are available in your community as well as the state or national level.  Your representatives also have the most power to help and have the biggest motive to help.

 

  • Their Power… The government bureaucracy that provides money and services to the community relies on the elected officials for their money.  You may pay the taxes but it is elected officials who “control the purse strings”  and determine the budgets and salaries for government bureaucrats. These government agencies have special back door phone numbers to handle requests from elected officials while you and I have to wait in line in the front door.
  • Their Motive… Elected officials WANT to help you because if they are able to make a phone call and get you the help you need, you will vote for this official no matter how many sex scandals they have.

 

To find you elected official put in your zip code here:
