The Convention of States North Carolina team announces that retired Army Lieutenant Colonel Allen West will join state grassroots leaders and activists, along with COS Action President, Mark Meckler and Senior Adviser, Senator Tom Coburn, for a citizen day at the North Carolina Capitol beginning with a rally at 10:30 a.m. in the North Carolina State Legislative Office Building. Following the rally, Lt. Col. West will join activists and meet with state legislators throughout the day.
A combat veteran and former Congressman from Florida, West is now well-known for his political commentary. He is the author of two books, including the recently released “Hold Texas, Hold the Nation,” which was called a “must-read” by Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade.
In his endorsement of the Convention of States, LTC West said, “Thank goodness the Founders had the wisdom to provide us with Article V of the Constitution, which gives us the right and power to hold an amending convention for the purpose of proposing amendments to restrain the scope and power of the federal government.”
