While the president and myriads of elected representatives are busy priming and prepping and appearing at yet another campaign rally or on yet another town hall prime-time special, who’s actually addressing health care, infrastructure, immigration, hunger, homelessness, veterans, racial injustice, environmental issues, opioids or any one of a hundred other local and national issues? Perhaps if our elected officials spent as much time serving in office as they do running for office, we could truly make the American “dream” the American “reality.”
