Two weeks ago, I sponsored the Save Mt. Soledad petition you may have seen (saveourmemorial.com), and it’s been signed by an amazing number of San Diegans – 6,519 in just this short amount of time.
The outpouring of support for the Mt. Soledad Memorial being heard loud and clear!
This morning, I sent a letter to Congressman Duncan Hunter, expressing my endorsement of H.R. 3810 – legislation introduced last week by the Congressman that could end the dispute over the Mt. Soledad Cross by transferring federal ownership of the site to a private non-profit.
As a military town, San Diegans overwhelmingly support keeping the Mt. Soledad Memorial exactly as it stands today – including the use of the Cross to honor the sacrifice of our U.S. Armed Forces.
Today, my office provided the names of those supporters to Congressman Hunter for use in gathering support from other Members of Congress to get behind H.R. 3810, and to ensure that the voices of San Diegans are heard.
If you haven’t signed the petition yet, it’s not too late – you can join the more than 6,500 San Diegans who want to see the cross stay where it is.
