Let's be honest, we aren't really petitioning to secede from the Union. It's much more than that.

What we really want is for the administration to recognize every state is different. The state's economies are different, the values of one state may differ from another. What works for California may not work for the Carolina's and the folks in New York probably don't want the same things those in Texas do. We don't expect the administration to cater to each of us individually, we want the administration to unite the individual states so that we may stand strong together. But let's remember, our strength is in diversity. We don't need to secede but we believe our local state government knows our state the best and we want them to handle our healthcare policies, our economic decisions, and the future of our state because they are DIRECTLY accountable to us.
