Labrador has done a great deal for Idaho

| June 6, 2013 7:00 AM

In a letter to the editor (Daily Bee, May 23), Robert Wright stated “Can anybody tell me what these four public servants have accomplished in Congress?”

Raul Labrador authored or co-authored 1. The Grazing Improvement Act, 2. The Exploring for Geothermal Energy on Federal Lands Act, 3. The STEM Jobs Act of 2012, 4. The Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2012, 5. The Self-Sufficient Community Lands Act, and 6. Preserving America’s Family Farms Act.

After reading all of the postings on the Bee’s blog site, it may be that even after reading this letter, Mr. Wright and others might be inclined to ignore the facts and continue to misrepresent the truth. Perhaps that is because he has no interest in family farms, or jobs, or transparency at all levels of government. Perhaps though, he has been misled by others posing as his friends.

I recommend that Mr. Wright research the six items listed above and then provide his considered wisdom on each. If he is so able.
