Dear Editor,

I’d like to thank Congresswoman Judy Biggert for her commitment to religious freedom in health care. As a Christian Scientist, I feel that ensuring individuals have access to effective health care, and respecting their religious freedom is important. Congresswoman Biggert has made great efforts to ensure that the original religious exemption in the recent health care legislation is fair and equitable.

The Congresswoman’s responsiveness to her constituents and her willingness to reach across the aisle to address their concerns are a breath of fresh air in today’s political landscape.

I for one am grateful to be represented by Congresswoman Biggert, who I believe is truly representing my fellow District 13 constituents and me in supporting such important liberties as religious freedom in health care.

Sincerely,

Thomas Mitchinson
