Join us!**   **NEWS** * [[https://conventionofstates.com/news/is-there-anything-we-can-do|//**Is there anything we can do?**//]]  Even though we were misled in part by our own apathy and ignorance, we can recover and win this war together if we "inform, educate and engage". You are not alone in this fight! * **[[https://conventionofstates.com/news/fentanyl-trafficking-at-the-southern-border|//Fentanyl Trafficking at the Southern Border//]]**   Fentanyl commands a profit 20 times that of heroine or cocaine. The drug cartels rely on the fact that US authorities are preoccupied with the surge in illegal immigrants at the Southern Border. This is ruining the lives of hundreds of thousands of Americans, and the politicians in Congress and the Federal administration are doing nothing! They don't care! * [[https://conventionofstates.com/news/how-federal-government-wastes-our-money|//**How the Federal Government Wastes Your Money**//]]  Unless forced, our representatives and the federal bureaucrats will never take care of our money as well as we do in our homes and businesses. It's time for us to take a stand and curb government overreach. Enough is enough! * [[https://conventionofstates.com/news/agenda-2030-universal-healthcare-for-all-part-3|//**Agenda 2030: Universal Healthcare for All (Part 3)**//]]  Socialized medicine is a failure everywhere it's been tried. Those who propose this kind of healthcare for our nation appear to be taking their agenda straight from Agenda 2030. * [[https://conventionofstates.com/news/human-trafficking-at-the-southern-border|//**Human Trafficking at the Southern Border**//]]   Human trafficking has become a multi-billion-dollar business and is the second most profitable after drugs. The cartels are making $13 billion a year.  We need to enforce our immigration laws, close the open border, and stop the cartels responsible for most human exploitation. The US Government has failed us so far. ====   ==== **EVENTS**   **January 26, 2023, Thursday** **ONLINE - Facebook** * Interactive LIVE Stream * Hosted by Kelly Oldford * 8:00 to 8:30 PM * Join Convention of States and host, Kelly Oldford, in an interactive //**LIVE**// Stream!
