There has been a huge influx of folks realizing that elections no longer work. Doing nothing is no longer an option. \\ \\ A meeting was recently held in Sumter on February 20, 2021, with a group of citizens that actively take part in other local political and community organizations. Discussions took place on how Article V is a peaceful solution for reining in an out-of-control federal government. \\ \\ {{https://content.conventionofstates.com/cosaction-prod/public/content/images/36300/36300_original.jpeg?927x1051|Midlands Regional Captain}}\\ Regional Captain Jeff Kilgren and District Captain Phillip Good directed the meeting.\\ {{https://content.conventionofstates.com/cosaction-prod/public/content/images/36302/36302_original.jpeg?924x1232|District Captain }}\\ There were 20 activists who attended.
