Constituent comments on issues of concern and interest:
 
In reference to the Drivers' License issue
Honorable Donna Rowland,

Thank you so very much for continue to fight for what is right.  As a member of the Tennessee ANG (118th Security Forces Squadron), and also being a Police Officer, this was the right thing to do.  Giving out these certificates jeopardized this country's safety along with Police Officers and Citizens of The Great State of TN. Keep up the good work!

Good job Donna,

Great perseverance.

Rod

In reference to request that the Governor to temporarily suspend state portion of gas tax.

Thanks on behalf of small business.  I am filling up my tank 2 1/2 times per week to meet with clients and it is a real burden on me and our family budget.  From the bottom of my heart - Thanks!

In reference to the statement from Representative Donna Rowland Concerning the Guilty Plea and Resignation of Chris Newton

Donna:

I know you are trying to do the right thing and have no part in any of the mess currently going on.  I am glad you are there.  I don’t envy your job but am glad you are willing to serve.

Roger


Well said Donna.  I sincerely believe that the problem of confidence in elected officials by their citizens is caused by a few dishonest people....  Do not back down one bit.  I want you to know that the majority of your supporters believe just like you and stand behind you 100%.  I admire your courage and determination.  Right is always right and wrong is wrong.  You speak for us!! The honorable U.S. citizens that still respect the truth and will always choose to do the right thing.  You make us proud.  Please call at any time I can support or assist you.

Sincerely,

Mark

 

In reference to Fiscal Review

Representative Rowland,

I attended yesterday's Fiscal Review Committee and just wanted to comment that I was very impressed with the thoughtfulness of your questions/comments regarding contracts and operations.  You must have a strong business background that gives you a unique perspective and thorough understanding on matters before the committee.

 

In reference to the Governor's School

Donna,

First I would like to thank you for including me on whatever list I am on to get your messages and information!!  On one of your last E-mails on the Governors Schools, it was very informative, and I passed it on to one of my church members that has a daughter that might fall in the scope of the program.  It really seemed nice.  As for the 15 minute video that I just watched in it's entirety, I must say "You go girl".  Thanks for standing up for what you believe is right, and I would like to let you know that I for one am right behind you!! Have a great day Donna, and keep up the good work.

In reference to Illegal Immigration

Thank you for your stand on legal immigration.  A secure border, with no amnesty, is the only way to restore our sovereignty.


Citizenship is not a commodity to be bought and sold for the benefit of the business community.  Immigration was once a benefit to both the immigrant and America.  Families came here for a new life as Americans.  Mother, father, and unmarried children all together in one trip.  Enforced sponsorship meant the newly arrived family had people in the community they could count on while assimilating.  It was a system that worked. Immigrants contribute to the community, they do not suck the life out of it.  We need to restore the promise and purpose of immigration to what it once was.


I am a baby-boomer. I have lived, and will die, a proud American.  I want the generations that follow to be able to say the same.  Your efforts to restore security, sovereignty, and dignity through enforced legal immigration is a great first step.  I salute you for your willingness to stand with "we, the people" on this issue.

Thank you,

Bonnie
