Military veteran: Will you be able to tell your children and grandchildren you've done all you could?

Published in Blog on March 01, 2022 by Article V Patriot

Like many Americans, George Caron is worried about the future of his country. He's deeply concerned about tyranny, and he wants to make sure he's doing everything he can to ensure a better future for his children and grandchildren.

But unlike too many Americans, he's decided to stand up and do something about it.

George serves as a Regional Captain for Convention of States Iowa, and he rose at a recent capitol rally to deliver a heartfelt message about why he joined the Convention of States movement.

"As veterans, many of us have seen the tragedy of tyranny. We understand why Convention of States is a solution to keep our self-governing nation. Our veterans, brothers and sisters, served and some died to keep America a land of liberty," he explained.

"I came to realize that unless I stand up now and work on a solution to keep us free from tyranny, my children and grandchildren would one day ask me, dad what did you do? And I would have to say, sorry, I was too busy, too fearful to speak out, and just thought someone else would do it," he continued. "Like many of you, God has shaken me to my core and awakened me. I want to be able to face my God, my children... and my fellow veterans, and say, I gave all I could. I fought the good fight."

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:

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