Dear Mayor Huether,

My name is Matt Winick from Ann Arbor, Michigan with a strong interest in learning history with public policy. In these subjects I like to learn the need to advance on Civil Rights to help protect people who are different from being discriminated, protect the environment from pollution, work on finding ways to improve public safety to make communities safer, and many others. The main reason I’m writing you a letter is because I find your work as Mayor of Sioux Falls, South Dakota to be very inspiring to me.

In your current role as Mayor of Sioux Falls, South Dakota I like on how you are a strong supporter of protecting women, minorities, and people with disabilities from being discriminated in education, public places, and jobs.  Also on Civil Rights, I am very proud on how you advocate for people with disabilities’ rights, helping Native American communities get funding, support funding women with minorities’ businesses to help them compete in the economy, and express the need to improve women’s rights. I like your commitment to improve education by funding special education to help students with disabilities get the educational accommodations they need, fund the arts with history to help make education diverse, and implement youth programs to help youth get engage in learning with getting help on learning or help the community.  Hiring police officers, fixing roads with highways to reduce accidents, and expanding training programs to help firefighters, law enforcement, and other rescue responders improve their skills to make them efficient when there is an emergency are great ways to improve public safety.  On the environment, I like on how you support funding renewable energy projects to help reduce addiction to oil with gas, provide funding to help clean up parks, rivers, and drinking water to help make them safe for people, and promote businesses to use energy efficient products to help reduce high energy cost.  Another thing that I like about your work as Mayor is working to improve tourism by supporting funds to help preserve historical sites along with national parks to help protect them from being disturbed including making learning history a great tool, fixing airports to help make them accommodating for passengers or tourists, and working with different businesses to find ways to improve to city to make them environmentally friendly to people.  

Mayor Huether, I have Autism. Having Autism is hard for me because I have trouble comprehending on learning different subjects especially new things, sometimes I struggle to communicate my thoughts, and get teased.  Your commitment to be a strong supporter of Civil Rights and advocate for people with disabilities’ rights really inspires me to work hard on my disability.  Also your role as Mayor of Sioux Falls and your commitment to help preserve historical sites with national parks motivates me to continue my interest in learning history along with public policy. My future goal is to someday teach history to help teach people about the need to make Civil Rights stronger with the need to make society better or work in public policy to help create common sense ideas to make society better. My letter is a gift to you for inspiring me and as a gift for your birthday July 24^th.   

Mayor Huether, I strongly believe that you are making a great difference in your current role as Mayor of Sioux Falls, South Dakota on different issues.  I’m very proud on how you work hard to make society a better place. You have truly inspired me to work hard on my disability, continue to learn different subjects when I face obstacles, and be motivated to continue my interest in learning history. I hope my letter can help motivate you to continue working hard to make great achievements. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter, working hard to make great achievements, and inspiring me. I wish you well to continue pushing for common sense ideas to make society stronger and to have a great birthday.

Sincerely,

Matt Winick
