Georgetown University Law Center professor
Randy E. Barnett as our featured guest.
Date: Wednesday, August 7th
Time: 6:00 pm MTN, 8:00 pm. ET
**Register For This Episode of COS At Home** \\
The conversation with Professor Barnett will
highlight the grassroots' work across the
country and how we can use current events to
maintain this focus.
In addition to the interview, we will delve into
Professor Barnett’s extensive work, including
hundreds of books, articles, reviews, and op-
eds on the Constitution.
These resources are invaluable for COS

COS Nat
’l Last Month:
Former President
Donald Trump, who officially clinched his
party’s 2024 presidential nomination, has
chosen Senator, best-selling author, and
Convention of States supporter J.D. Vance as
his running mate.
This is pivotal as the swing state of Ohio is still
mulling support for our resolution. This is a big
win for COS as now one of our supporters is in
line to be the second most prominent politician
in Washington, D.C.

Message from State Director:
A BIG Thank you to all our Team members,
volunteers, and supporters that made the Mark
Meckler visit to Utah a huge success!
Now how do we carry on from there? On a hot
summer morning - for just a few minutes the
flag on my patio unfurled and waved on the
breeze - the Universe was reminding me that
we, as freedom loving citizens of this great
Republic, do not have the luxury of giving in to
discouragement. Not even when the darkness
seems to be closing in all around. We have
been given A Call to muster all the courage
and strength we possess, and alongside our
brothers and sisters, fight to the bitter end for
our way of life. It will take nothing less.
3 1/2 years ago I found a warm home for my
patriotism. I found the Convention of States
and am so proud to be counted as a member
of COS Team Utah. No finer people on this
planet. There is love here. We have each
other’s backs, come what may. ALWAYS. If
you value your Liberty and are looking for a
place to defend it, you are welcome here.
There is no other requirement. We need you.
Your country desperately needs you.
The time is now!!
