THE CITIZENS' AGENDA

YOUR QUESTIONS SHAPE THE ISSUES

Campaigns belong to the citizens, not just the candidates. This campaign season, The Roanoke Times is giving readers a chance to set the agenda by posing questions they'd like the candidates for the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives to address.

"Why does the United States allow all these jobs to go south of the border?"

-Sam Kyle, Pulaski

"What are the candidates' highest priorities for public education?"

-Dana DeHart, Pulaski

"How are the candidates going to start getting the young people in this country more involved in the political scene?"

-Mark McGlauflin, Bedford

Today, the candidates begin to answer.

FOR THE CANDIDATES' ANSWERS TO THESE AND OTHER QUESTIONS, SEE HORIZON, PAGE 5
