COS Action Maryland launched our state strategy on September 10 to connect with people on the issues they care about and teach them how to make a difference.Our underlying goal is to grow our team to 12 active district captains and 36,000 petition signers by September 2026.
We need your help to get there!
As a continuous improvement organization, we’re always asking, “how can we help our supporters to be effective citizens?” The Maryland Team for Convention of States Action has a plan, and we want you to be part of it. We’re branching out beyond Article V to create an engaged and active citizenship.
That's where you come in
You may be feeling like you want to get involved in some way. But how? Taking on government as an individual is a tall order. How can you, just one person, do anything that will be effective – short of voting, that is.
That’s where Convention of States Action Maryland’s plan comes in, and that’s where you – and your desire to do something - can learn to be highly effective.
We’d like to see as many citizens as possible get involved. What does that look like? Well, that's up to you - it's different for everyone. Even if you only have one hour a week to give, you can make a difference. Whatever skills you have (and you do have valuable skills) they can be helpful.
COS Action Maryland offers training, resources, support and encouragement every step of the way. Have you ever thought you’d like to talk to the legislators about how they vote? You could learn to engage with them and show them the benefits of collaborating with Convention of States Action. If quietly working behind the scenes is more to your liking, that works, too.
