SAY THANKS FOR HOLDING THE LINE ON JANUARY 6 Send postcards or letters of thanks to the four officers who testified at the first hearing of the January 6th Select Committee. The officers have been vilified for their honesty and service to America, so they deserve our support. Moreover, taking the time to write a note of thanks will serve as a moment of contemplation about the sacrifice others have made to protect our liberty. As Robert Hubbell says, "Gratitude is the secret to happiness. Let’s show gratitude to four brave officers who held the line for democracy on January 6th. It will be a blessing for them and for you." • For Harry Dunn and Aquilino Gonnell: United States Capitol Police 119 D St NE Washington, DC 20510 • For Michael Fanone and Daniel Hodges: Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia 300 Indiana Ave NW.
