Jacob grew up in poverty, but he didn't let his circumstances define his life.
"Because of the great opportunities in the state of Montana and of the U.S., I was able to raise myself up and set a foundation for my kids that they can build on," he told a Montana legislative committee.
Unfortunately, federal overreach is threatening the American dream Jacob has lived. Overregulation and a takeover of state power is destroying the freedoms we enjoy, and Jacob fears his three daughters won't be able to expand on the foundation he's built.
"I feel that we're losing that opportunity for the next generation," he said.
If you share Jacob's fear, there is a solution. An Article V Convention of States can propose constitutional amendments that limit federal power and maintain the freedom that has lifted so many Americans out of poverty.
