There is much more to the political process than just pressing the flesh and
pounding the proverbial pavement. An effective elected official not only
understands the people he or she represents but appreciates them as well.
I value the people I serve. I view them as voices not as votes. I admit, at
times I can be the consummate palm-presser and back-slapper but while I am
gripping and grinning, I am also listening and learning.
Representation is about reflecting and respecting the views and the values of
the electorate. To that end, I have worked vigorously to represent the will
and the wishes of those who put their trust in me. The concerns of my
constituents come above everything on my service-oriented agenda.
I understand that government is not always the solution. When given the
proper support and direction, people can solve their own problems. I place a
premium on personal responsibility. Throughout my life I have endeavored to
engage stakeholders and empower them as well. The only way to build civic
capacity is to achieve civic unity.
I represent different people with different opinions but my objective has
always been the same, to find common ground on common goals. We all
want a better quality of life for everyone from our senior citizens down to
our children. The key is the ability to see the big picture. What we do today
will affect what takes place tomorrow.
All too often the impediments to progress are found in the walls of ignorance,
animosity and inflated egos. I have fought to break down barriers by bringing
people together. I believe in building bridges and trying to help everyone get
across troubled waters.
My mother is the best teacher I have ever had. One of the most indelible
lessons she imparted upon me was that we must “live to give”. A career in
politics can be costly. It will take you away from your family and friends.
Yes, there is a price to pay because service requires sacrifice. God and my
family mean everything to me but I also hold the people I serve in high
esteem.
People want leaders who are strong and sincere. Furthermore, citizens have
every right to hold their elected officials accountable. Unfortunately, when
the members of the general public continuously read or hear about political
corruption they lose interest and more importantly, faith. I am committed to
serving with honesty and integrity. Moreover, I vow to do what is right and
change what isn’t.
I did not enter politics to make money, but to rather make a difference. My
purpose is service.
Sincerely,
Andre Sayegh
