Dear Vice President Harris,

My name is Matt Winick from Ann Arbor, Michigan and I have a strong interest in learning history including social justice. In these subjects, I like to learn the need for civil rights to be stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, and many others. Vice President Harris, the main reason I’m writing you a letter is to explain how I find your work when you served as 32nd Attorney General of California, as U.S. Senator from California, and as current 49th Vice President of the U.S. to be very inspiring to me.

When you served as 32nd Attorney General of California from 2011-2017, I truly appreciated on how you were a strong supporter of civil rights by advocating for people with disabilities’ rights, prosecuting people who commit hate crimes to help protect minorities including people who are different, and investigating public places that practice different forms of discrimination or violate civil rights legislation. Supporting drug treatment programs to help drug users get the care they need to reduce drug abuse, expanding resources to help victims of crimes or victims of domestic violence get help on dealing with their trauma, and supporting along with advocating for funds to help improve DNA testing including forensic science to help solve evidence or cases efficiently while reduce sending an innocent person to jail is common sense for criminal justice reform. In your role as U.S. Senator from California from 2017-2021, I like on how you continue to be a strong supporter of civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights. Also in the U.S. Senate, I like on how you were supported environmental protection including renewable energy resources, holding judicial nominees accountable in the Senate Judiciary Committee, and being a strong advocate of immigration reform to help protect immigrants including refugees from oppressive countries.  In January 2021, I was amazed on how you made history on becoming the first African American and Asian American woman to become Vice President of the United States. In your current role as 49th Vice President of the United States, I like on how you are working with President Joe Biden to expand on civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights, using your power to cast tie-breaking votes to help pass The American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 to help provide funds to help combat against COVID-19 while expand on the COVID-19 vaccination production to help people get protected from the virus including supporting some of the President Biden judicial nominees that are supportive of criminal justice reform along with civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights, and heavily advocate for better ideas to help protect the environment from pollution.

Vice President Harris, I have autism with learning disability. Having a disability is hard for me because I have trouble comprehending on learning different advanced subjects, sometimes I struggle to communicate my thoughts in different settings, and get teased. Also with a disability I have struggles on trying to understand how society works due to my struggle with comprehension and I get bullied by women including adults about having a disability.  Your commitment to be s strong supporter of civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights really inspires me to work hard on my disability. Your role 32nd Attorney General of California, as former U.S. Senator from California, and as current 49th Vice President of the U.S. helps give me motivation to continue to learn history including social justice. My future goal is to someday work in these areas to help emphasize the need for civil rights to be stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, and many others. 

I strongly believe that you are making a great difference for society and our country.  I’m very proud on how you work hard to support civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights, protect the environment, expand on social justice, and many others. You truly inspire me to work hard on my disability, learn more about your work, and continue to learn different subjects. Please continue to advocate and push for common sense ideas.

Sincerely,

Matt Winick

Dear President Biden,

My name is Matt Winick from Ann Arbor, Michigan and I have a strong interest in learning history, environment, social justice, and criminal justice reform.  In these subjects, I like to learn the need for civil rights to be stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, and many others. President Biden, the main reason I’m writing you a letter is to explain how I find your work as 46th President of the United States to be very inspiring to me.

In your current role as 46th President of the United States, I truly appreciate on how you were a strong supporter of civil rights by advocating for people with disabilities’ rights, signed COVID-19 Hate Crimes Act to help protect minorities including Asian Americans from hate crimes, and continuing to support same sex couple’s rights. During the pandemic including the new normal era,  I really liked on how you had the courage to push for The American Rescue Plan to get passed in congress where it help expand on the COVID-19 vaccination production to help provide Americans including Americans who are low income with access to a vaccine to protect themselves from the virus, expand on the stimulus checks to people who are unemployed or had been laid off due to the pandemic, and improve on research on ways to combat against COVID-19 even though it wasn’t popular in politics or in the news media. Rejoining the Paris Climate Accords to work with other foreign countries to find ways to reduce co2 emissions and supporting funds for renewable energy resources to reduce addiction to oil including gas is common sense to help protect the environment. On the economy, I liked on how you had the courage to push for the Inflation Reduction Act to provide federal money to small businesses including companies help create jobs including invest in industries to build production of renewable energy resources  and CHIPS and Science Act to push for federal funds to boost research jobs in domestic on science including technology. On judicial reform, I like on how you are working to push for more diversity into the federal courts of minorities, people who are advocates of criminal justice reform and people who are advocates of disabilities’ rights or other civil rights.  Another thing that I like about your work as 46th President of the United States is how you push for Ketanji Brown Jackson to be nominated to the Supreme Court where she made history on becoming the first African American woman to be on the Supreme Court and signed Honoring our PACT Act of 2022 to improve health care access including better funding for veterans who were exposed to toxic substances during military services or burning pits to get better access to health care.

President Biden, I have autism with a learning disability. Having a disability is hard for me because I have trouble comprehending on learning different advanced subjects, sometimes I struggle to communicate my thoughts in different settings, and get teased. Also with my disability I have faced some forms of discrimination in public places and sometimes get harassed by law enforcement about having a disability. Your commitment to be a strong supporter of civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights really inspires me to work hard on my disability. During the COVD-19 pandemic, I was laid off due to food service being closed to COVID-19 where I had struggled to get some stimulus checks due to unemployment services not working well. The American Rescue Plan that you signed and pushed for helped provide me with some stimulus checks to help keep me on my feet along with helping use the money to survive and to get access to the COVID-19 vaccine to help protect myself while be mindful of other people around me from the virus.  Your current role as 46th President of the United States helps give me motivation to continue to learn history including social justice. My future goal is to someday work in these areas to help emphasize the need for civil rights to be stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, and many others.  

I strongly believe that you are making a great difference for society. I’m very proud on how you are working hard to support civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights, protect the environment, and many others. Your presidency on pushing for The American Rescue Plan helped me out during the pandemic through the New Normal Era. You truly inspire me to work hard on my disability, learn more about your work, and continue to learn different subjects. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter, working hard to make a great difference, and inspiring me. Please continue to advocate for common sense ideas.

Sincerely,

Matt Winick

Dear Mr. Wiegand,

My name is Matt Winick from Ann Arbor, Michigan and I have a strong interest in learning history including social justice. In these subjects, I like to learn the need for civil rights to be stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, and many others. Mr. Wiegand, the main reason I’m writing you a letter is to explain how I find your work as performer of Teddy Roosevelt to be very inspiring to me and how you inspire me to continue to learn history. 

The Teddy Roosevelt Show is a great historical performance about Teddy Roosevelt’s life including his work in his presidency. Mr. Wiegand, you do such an excellent job portraying as Teddy Roosevelt because I like on how you make him a unique historical figure on having a sense of humor, telling about the highlights of his work in public service including his achievements when he was president, and many others. Also in your portrayal of Teddy Roosevelt I like on how you emphasize on how he was supportive of civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights, protecting the environment,  addressing the need for better worker’s right along with benefits, and many others along with how it is important for these issues to continue on their history with the present. I enjoy watching your clips of the Teddy Roosevelt Show on Youtube and on Facebook. Besides your work as a historical reenactor, I truly appreciate on how you are a strong supporter of civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights causes to reduce discrimination, support environmental protection causes to reduce pollution, and address the need for better workers’ rights including benefits.

Mr. Wiegand, I have autism with a learning disability. .  Having a disability is hard for me because I have trouble comprehending on learning different advance subjects, sometimes I struggle to communicate my thoughts, and get teased.  Another thing that I struggle with a disability is when other people including other adults get judgmental about me being different from them and have struggles to find different methods to improve myself.  Also I had done teaching time to help me learn to speak while learn how to improve my behavior, spent time in special education to help me learn different subjects in education, and many others.  I didn’t have many friends in life, I would use learning history including learning about historical figures who have worked hard to make some good contribution in society to help me navigate society along with motivating me to try to do good thing when life gets tough. Your support for civil rights including people with disabilities’ right causes really inspires me to work hard on my disability. Your role as a reenactor of Teddy Roosevelt and the Teddy Roosevelt Show helps give me more motivation to continue to learn history. In history I like to learn how famous people or different individuals (minorities, women, and people with disabilities) make an impact on society, the need for civil rights to be stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution, the importance of health care reform to help people who can’t afford health insurance or struggle with pre-existing conditions get the care they need, a need for criminal justice reform to help protect people’s rights while reduce crime, and many others.  My future goal is to work in history to help educate people about these fundamental ideas to make society better.

I strongly believe that you are a very talented reenactor. You do such an excellent job making Teddy Roosevelt a great historical figure. I truly appreciate on how you are an advocate for civil rights including people with disabilities’ rights including common sense ideas. You truly inspire me to work hard on my disability, be a fan of your work,  continue my interest in learning history. I was wondering if you could please wish me a Happy Birthday for December 3rd including some advice about working hard on my disability when there are challenges, and if you could also share with me on what it is like being Teddy Roosevelt. I hope that you can visit Ann Arbor Michigan to do The Teddy Roosevelt Show so I can meet you in person. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter, working hard to make a great difference, and inspiring me. Please continue to make a great impact on society and history.

Sincerely,
