Dear District Attorney McCann,

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, have criminal justice reform to help protect people’s rights while reduce crime, and many others.  District Attorney McCann, the main reason I’m writing you a letter is to explain how I find your work as District Attorney for Colorado’s 2^nd Judicial District to be very inspiring to me.

In January 2017, I was amazed on how you made history on becoming the first woman to become as District Attorney for Colorado’s 2^nd Judicial District.  In your current role as District Attorney for Colorado’s 2^nd Judicial District, I truly appreciate on how you are a strong supporter of Civil Rights by advocating for people with disabilities’ rights,  prosecuting people who commit hate-crime to help protect minorities including people who are different, and  investigating public places that violate civil rights legislation or practice different forms of discrimination.  Supporting drug treatment programs to help drug-users get the care they need to reduce drug abuse and expressing the need for DNA testing including forensic science to help solve evidence efficiently while reduce sending an innocent person to jail is common sense for criminal justice reform. On victim’s rights, I like on how you work to with law enforcement including the District Attorney office to expand resources to help victims of domestic violence or victims of crime help on dealing with their trauma, expand on supporting funds to improve on testing rape kit to help reduce sexual assault along with reduce the delay in the rape kit backlog.   Another thing that I like about your work as District Attorney for Colorado’s 2^nd Judicial District is how you went after industries that illegally pollute the environment or violate environmental protection to help protect the environment while protect public health, prosecute public officials who are corrupt or accept illegal bribes,  and support educational awareness programs to help educate people about the need to reduce drug abuse including gun violence.  Also I like on how you are a strong advocate for the need to reduce bullying including cyber bullying to help protect people including people who are different or have a disability.

District Attorney McCann, 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.  Your commitment to be a strong supporter of Civil Rights including people with disabilities’ rights really inspires me to work hard on my disability.  Also your role as current  District Attorney for Colorado’s 2^nd Judicial District gives me some motivation to continue to learn history including social justice.  My future goal is to someday work in these areas to help emphasize the need to make Civil Rights stronger to reduce discrimination, protect the environment from pollution,  have criminal justice reform to help protect people’s rights while reduce crime, and many others.

I strongly believe that you are making a great difference for society. I’m amazed on how you made history on becoming the first woman to become District Attorney for Colorado’s 2^nd Judicial District.  Also I like on how you are working hard to support civil rights, push for criminal justice reform, and advocate for victims rights.  You have inspired me to work hard on my disability and learn more history including social justice.  Thanks for taking the time to read my letter, working hard to make a great difference, and inspiring me.  I wish you the best to continue to make a great impact on society.

Sincerely,

Matt Winick
