Rain and cold didn't stop Convention of States patriots from rallying at the Capitol in Topeka this week!
Over 100 volunteers and supporters showed up to hear from Convention of States leaders and urge their state legislators to support the Convention of States Resolution.
“They understand that Kansas has lost its power to the federal government, and they want that power back,” said Mark Meckler, President of Convention of States Action. “Those are the people I serve. Just the regular people of Kansas, who want to see Washington D.C. out of their lives, and want to see the decisions being made here in the Kansas Legislature.”
In his remarks to those gathered, he emphasized Convention of States volunteers and supporters are the real engine that drives the Article V movement.
“We get accolades for what we do but we do not deserve them. We are not here if you the people are not there. You build a grass roots organization, you build a campaign to get stuff done, only because of people like you," Mark said.
Our Resolution in Kansas is now awaiting consideration by the Senate Federal and State Affairs Committee. They're expected to vote soon, so be looking for another victory announcement!
