The Convention of States movement has grown since its founding in 2013 from a small national staff and growing state teams to a 40-person national team coming alongside massive volunteer organizations in every state.
That's great news for the Article V movement as a whole. But, as Mark Meckler explains in the video below, it can make volunteers like you -- the men and women who do the real, on-the-ground work -- feel distant from the folks who make the larger strategic decisions.
That's why, at the first-ever Convention of States Leadership Summit, we wanted to gather three of the five members of the national Executive Team and allow our amazing volunteers and supporters to get to know them a little better.
Rita Dunaway is our National Legislative Strategist. She helps state teams develop a winning strategy to pass the Convention of States resolution in their state legislature. Working closely with her is our Grassroots Director Ginny Rapini. Ginny is responsible for helping state teams grow and manage their local volunteers and leaders.
Together, they've been a crucial part of our victories in 15 state legislatures, and they share more in the video below about what drives them to be a part of the Article V movement and how grassroots and legislative strategy work together in the fight for self-governance.
