Impeccable character

In a letter to the editor titled “An attempt to deceive,” the author uses the words and phrases “sleazy,” “deceive,” and “suffer greatly” to describe Congressman Hill and his letter to set the record straight on health-care policy and votes. He says that Congressman Hill would be willing to “allow those less fortunate than he to suffer greatly.”

I disagree with the author’s characterization of Congressman Hill and I expect that if Congressman Hill said the sky was blue that the author would say it was green. This is exactly where politics is today!

I can attest to Congressman Hill’s impeccable character and integrity and have worked with him for years. I know he is compassionate for those less fortunate. With me, he works with local nonprofit organizations and faith-based organizations to bolster policies for those re-entering society from prison to get the training needed to get a job.

He has worked feverishly with state and federal officeholders across the aisle in developing an Arkansas skilled work force and to help those seeking jobs get the training needed. Leading the effort in Congress, he is co-chairman of the bipartisan Congressional Skilled Workforce Caucus with Congressman Brenda Lawrence, D-Mich.
