And now, another Fact of Congress

Ever hear somebody stating a supposed 'fact' when you know there has to be another side to the story?

Well, getting to the truth quite often means that you take the time to go beyond one person’s opinion and dig around for what others have to say about it.

When you hear about an issue or a law that you’re really interested in, take the time to find out what the other side thinks about it.

I’ll bet you learn some things you hadn’t thought of before, and then you can weigh both sides and come up with your own opinion.

Analyzing all the facts and opinions can not only make you a better informed citizen, it might give you an idea of how you can help. That helps makes you a great citizen!

And that’s another Fact of Congress
