Public Service

Public Services touch every member of society every day.

People in public service do the work that keeps society running smoothly, from building bridges to passing laws. They collect taxes and spend public funds on projects and programs designed to benefit citizens of a town, city, state, or nation. They operate public services such as schools, parks, hospitals, airports, water and power utilities, and more. Elected officials represent the voters in government and civil servants enforce rules and regulations so that society operates equitably and safely. If you want to serve your community, run for public office someday, or protect our rights and freedoms, then Public Service may be the right endorsement for you.
