Dear Fellow Americans,

I want to take a minute and wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving. This is a holiday that has been a tradition since the early 1600’s. It has been a day when most of us admittedly gain a couple extra pounds as we come together as family and friends and enjoy a feast and great fellowship.

I am not going to make this a long note, but I wanted to take the time and tell you some of the things I am thankful for, and thank you for your unwavering commitment to protecting our great nation from those who seek to alter or destroy it.

I am thankful for our troops, and for the sacrifices they made and continue to make to protect our nation.

I am thankful for those strong enough to stand while others cannot find the courage to stand or the character to fight unselfishly for the people.

I am thankful for the Founding Fathers and the thought they put into drafting our Constitution.

We have much to be thankful for…. Tomorrow we continue our fight to preserve our Constitution and hold those in our leadership accountable. But today, today we give thanks for those many blessings we have been given as we spend quality time with our friends and family.

May God continue to bless this nation, and give us the strength to stand up to those who would do harm to it, both foreign and domestic.

God Bless you all,

Joe Otto
