Bowie Citizens for Accountable Government
Across the country, there is a growing sentiment that our elected officials no longer work for us; Bowie citizens feel no differently. After months of petition drives, hours of testimony, and dozens of letters-to-the-editor, we came to the conclusion: no one was listening.
Determined to be the masters of our fate, Bowie residents joined together - from every walk of life, men/women, young/old, Republican/Democrat, and so Bowie Citizens for Accountable Government was born.
