Steve Deace at Convention of States Iowa Rally: 'Don't take no for an answer. Take your power back!'

Published in Blog on February 03, 2022 by Article V Patriot

Steve Deace wasn't always a supporter of the Convention of States movement.

But he changed his mind, as he explained to a raucous crowd gathered at the Iowa state capitol, when he realized the solution to our nation's problems can't be found in Washington. 

"The entire damn government is 'run away,' and all they do is run me over!" he said.

Deace believes our country is in the "endgame." We can either allow radical big-government forces to take control of our country, or we can fight back with an Article V Convention of States.

"We are at the end of a football game," he said. "We don't know what a gender is. We don't know what a border is. We don't know what a criminal is. We don't know what a citizen is. Hell, we don't know what a doctor is right now."

"You might be living through the last days of a superpower," Deace went on. "However, we won't be a part of a self-fulfilling prophecy. If that happens, it's because it's a sovereign act of God. Not the laziness of a people that were sovereign and left their citizenship at home."

To those hoping to elect the "right" people to Washington, Deace encouraged the crowd to, instead, take matters into their own hands.

"We can't vote our way out of this. The vast majority of Republicans are useless. We have to take power back ourselves. We can't outsource our citizenship any longer. The answer is us."

"The answer is us. It's time for us to take our power back, to call a Convention of States."

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:
