We are in a Race to Save our Country

Published in Blog on July 12, 2021 by Stephen Patten

We are in a race to save our country.

As you know, our country is on the wrong path. Our federal government is increasingly bloated, reckless, and corrupt. 

Convention of States supporters know that there is a solution as big as the problem. The U.S. Constitution provides a path to correct course and put the federal government back in its box. 

In using Article V of the Constitution, We The People--acting through our state legislatures--can propose amendments that will rein in federal overreach, put fiscal restraints on spending, and place term limits on federal officials, members of Congress, and even the Supreme Court. 

What we need is more people like you. 

It’s clear that the Swamp is moving as quickly as possible to enact regulations and edicts that are antithetical to our founding principles. 
COS Maryland has had some important successes, but these successes could be much more significant with a dramatic increase in support. 

With this in mind our COS team has joined the 50K Race for Liberty! And we need you to help us run and win this race. 

Approximately 25,000 Maryland citizens have signed our petition, and we’ve set a goal to get 50,000 (50K) petitions by the end of the year. 

It’s definitely a Big Hairy Audacious Goal, but we know it is attainable with your help. 

So what are we asking asking? 

Share this blog post with at least five people (right now) and ask them to support COS Action in Maryland by signing the petition today. 

That’s it, pretty simple. 

We hear from supporters all the time that they want to help, but aren’t sure of how. This is how you help. Get no less than five people to sign our petition today.

If you have not yet signed the COS petition, or you’re not sure if you have, visit conventionofstates.com and sign it today. 

If you have signed the petition, thank you. We need you to share this blog post with at least five people right now. 

Thank you for your support and taking this action to help us win the 50K Race for Liberty!

Petition your state legislator

Almost everyone knows that our federal government is on a dangerous course. The unsustainable debt combined with crushing regulations on states and businesses is a recipe for disaster.

What is less known is that the Founders gave state legislatures the power to act as a final check on abuses of power by Washington, DC. Article V of the U.S. Constitution authorizes the state legislatures to call a convention to proposing needed amendments to the Constitution. This process does not require the consent of the federal government in Washington DC.

I support Convention of States; a national movement to call a convention under Article V of the United States Constitution, restricted to proposing amendments that will impose fiscal restraints on the federal government, limit its power and jurisdiction, and impose term limits on its officials and members of Congress.

I want our state to be one of the necessary 34 states to pass a resolution calling for this kind of an Article V convention. You can find a copy of the model resolution and the Article V Pocket Guide (which explains the process and answers many questions) here: https://conventionofstates.com/handbook_pdf

I ask that you support Convention of States and consider becoming a co-sponsor. Please respond to my request by informing the national COS team of your position, or sending them any questions you may have:

info@conventionofstates.com or (540) 441-7227.

Thank you so much for your service to the people of our district.

Respectfully, [Your Name]
