Recently, a first ever district meeting was held in the Indian Land area of South Carolina. District Captains Bruce Goebel and Kurt Specht set up the meeting in Bruce’s home and welcomed 12 local petition signers, plus support from Regional Captain Sheila Reiland.
Topics covered included:
- Orientation to the COS district geography and impact of upcoming redistricting for House and Senate representation.
- The primary federal government problems that Convention of States is focused on addressing are excessive spending, overreach into State and Local issues and the damage caused by long term, entrenched politicians in Washington.
- Momentum for Convention of States is building and polls show that there is very strong bipartisan support throughout the country.
- In South Carolina, the Convention of States resolution passed the House in May 2021 and will be acted on by the Senate early in the second part of the 124th session. We are optimistic that we will achieve a successful vote by the Senate early this year.
Key next steps for the district are to continue communicating with local legislators, exploring educational options at cosuniversity, setting up additional block walking, leveraging Telepatriot and being prepared to travel to Columbia, SC to support passage of the COS resolution at the SC Senate. Additionally, there is a great deal of enthusiasm within the district core team to schedule COS presentations for various groups in the area.
