For the
majority of my life, I haven’t been politically active or affiliated
with a party. While I’m a firm believer in democracy and the greatness
that is our U.S. Constitution, I never saw the need to be engaged
beyond showing up to vote. Then Andrew Yang ran for president, and I
felt that there was finally someone who was taking a more
nuanced approach to solving the problems facing
everyday Americans. For the
first time in my life, I got involved in
politics.
I continued
to follow Yang’s political endeavors and when the Forward Party
launched, I became active and engaged. What started as a simple
request for more information on Forward has since turned into a State
Leadership position. Through this role, I have the opportunity to
connect with Michiganders and Americans to learn how the political
extremes have affected their families and friendships.
At Forward, I get to witness people of all political
backgrounds work together to build a community focused on conversation
and common ground.
Through these experiences, I’ve learned how similar we all truly
are. If you’re a parent like me, I’m sure you, too, worry about what
kind of country our children will inherit. Every day, I am inspired to
work towards a future America that will bring about change and
cooperation. I feel hopeful for the future my children
will inherit.
Forward has a vision that our government can become a
solutions-based multi-party system, building community while
respecting individual autonomy. Americans are hard-working, amazing
people who deserve a democracy that's neither left nor right, but
Forward. I welcome you to be inspired along with me.
Thanks,
Heather Herrygers
Michigan State
Lead
