Dear Circuit Attorney Gardner,


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. Circuit Attorney Gardner, the main reason I’m writing you a letter is to explain how I find your work when you served as Member of the Missouri House of Representatives from the 77th district and in your current role as Circuit Attorney of St. Louis, Missouri to be very inspiring to me. 


When you served as Member of the Missouri House of Representatives from the 77th district from 2013-2017, I truly appreciates on how you are a strong supporter of civil rights by advocating for people with disabilities’ rights, supporting funds for women including minorities businesses to help them compete in the economy, and working with other members of the Missouri House of Representatives to expand on laws to combat against hate-crime to help protect minorities including people who are different. On the economy, I liked on how you support an expansion of jobs training programs to help train youth including workers to develop or improve on job skills to help them prepare for the work force and advocate for the need to raise the minimum wage to help assist minimum wage workers afford to live.  Supported funds for renewable energy resources to help reduce addiction to oil with gas, encouraged businesses including industries to use energy efficient products to reduce high energy cost while reduce pollution, and worked to push for funds to help clean parks including water resources to make them safe for people to use is common sense to protect the environment.  On education, I like on how you support funds to improve special education to help students with disabilities get accommodations they need to learn and push for literacy programs to help adults including students to develop reading skills to improve on comprehension.  In January 2017, I was amazed on how you made history on becoming the first African American woman to become Circuit Attorney of St. Louis, Missouri. In your current role as Circuit Attorney of St. Louis, Missouri, I like on how you are a continuous supporter of civil rights by advocating for people with disabilities’ rights and prosecuting people who commit hate crime to help protect minorities including people who are different. Supporting an expansion of drug treatment programs to help drug users get the care they need to reduce drug abuse and  pushing for funds to improve DNA testing including forensic science to help solve evidence efficiently while reduce sending an innocent person to jail, teaming up with the innocence project to form Conviction Integrity Unit to investigate wrongful convictions along with find ways to reduce it is common sense for criminal justice reform. Another thing that I like about your work as St. Louis Circuit Attorney is how you decided to end prosecution for low-level marijuana possession by replacing it with community service,  investigating companies including industries that illegally pollute the environment including violate environmental protection laws, and went after public officials including law enforcement that accept illegal bribes or commit misconduct to reduce corruption. 


Circuit Attorney Gardner, 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.  On Youtube, I enjoy watching you talk about the need for criminal justice reform and how Conviction Integrity Unit is very important in society to reduce wrongful conviction. Your role as former Member of the Missouri House of Representatives from the 77th district and in your current role as Circuit Attorney of St. Louis, Missouri gives 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,  expand on criminal justice reform to help protect people’s rights while reduce crime, and many others.  My letter is a gift to you for inspiring me and to wish you a Happy Birthday for August 2nd. 


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, protect the environment from pollution, expand on criminal justice reform, and many others.  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 make a great difference for society,


Sincerely,


Matt Winick
