**We're seeing that simply voting isn't enough.** Our government is trillions of dollars in debt (and is just going deeper!). Career politicians are more interested in holding power instead of representing We the People. Non-elected officials have the power to make federal laws with little-to-no oversight. COVID policies and other hot-button issues have continued to divide our representatives. Our broken federal government has simply gotten too big to manage.

> "You know our country goes through different cycles, some good, some not-so-good. We're going through a very bad cycle right now. Jefferson said, Joseph Story said, Ronald Regan said, 'If we're going to be destroyed, we're going to be destroyed from within.' **And we're being destroyed from within.** There's simply no question about it." //- Mark Levin, COS Leadership Summit 2022//

It's time we changed this with three core action items:

  - **placing term limits on federal officials**
  - **imposing fiscal restraints**
  - **limiting the power and jurisdiction of the federal government**\\

**Over 2.4 million Americans just like you agree and have signed the petition to call a convention of states** from every single state house legislative district in the country, [[https://conventionofstates.com/endorsements|including a few names you might recognize.]] Over 5 million have voiced their support for the movement, and [[https://conventionofstates.com/states-that-have-passed-the-convention-of-states-article-v-application|19 out of 34 states]] have already passed the Convention of States Resolution. \\

YOU can be a part of this growing movement, too, to show Washington that **"We the People" are coming to take our country back!**
