Dear Fellow Citizen,

The writing is on the wall, elected officials born of the pageantry of privately funded election campaigns are not and cannot deliver us from the present circumstance and ongoing harm to our shared heritage  It is up to us. We must look to the Constitution and go through the federal convention process together. We must discuss, mathematically build consensus, and formally propose non-partisan amendments the US Congress has not and/or cannot and/or will not.

There are now an estimated 20 million Americans (and growing) who are saying Yes—it’s time for us to take matters into our own hands legally and in a civil manner. We should be unafraid of formally discussing amendment proposals with our fellow citizens.

Simply knowing about and being cognizant of the facts regarding the convention process—that it is not dangerous—that the process is fully equipped with all the checks and balances just like any other federal process—matters.
