Responses sought on lawmaker's positions

Posted August 18, 2018 1:00 am

Dear Rep. Peter Breen: I am still awaiting your response. I asked you in May on your Facebook page, from which I was then blocked, in an email in June, and then again by email on Aug. 1. I have yet to hear from you. Whether you agree with me or not, you are my representative, and I am entitled to an answer. I want to know what you are doing to promote comprehensive sex and reproductive care education.

While I am unquestionably pro-choice, I would hope we could all agree that we can prevent unwanted pregnancies through education and accessibility to birth control and reproductive health care. I want to know what you are doing to help prevent unwanted pregnancies, and in general, to help provide affordable health care for your constituents.

I would also like answers as to why I was blocked from your Facebook account, nothing I posted was offensive or inappropriate, and why you don't respond to your constituents.
