'What are you willing to fight for?': WATCH Sen. Rick Santorum's pro-COS battlecry

Published in Blog on August 02, 2022 by Jakob Fay

“What are you willing to fight for?” 

Earlier this year, an impassioned Rick Santorum posed this question to a rapt crowd at the 2022 Pennsylvania Leadership Conference. The former Senator bemoaned that the country is far off course and even our children are under attack, yet many Americans have become too materialistic to do anything about it. 

Throughout his speech, Senator Santorum, a Senior Advisor to the Convention of States Project, called out conservatives in particular for failing to do enough. He worried that we are too preoccupied with our possessions, too afraid to lose our “stuff” to take a stand for what is right.

“We have to quit worrying about our stuff,” he implored, “and worry about the future for our children and grandchildren.”

We need to be committed to the cause, no matter the cost, he further instructed. “One of the things I learned when I was in the Congress and the U.S. Senate is that the other side is committed. They really care about this stuff.” 

“Evil is always on the march,” he later added. “Are you?”

Despite his clear misgivings concerning the precarious state the country finds itself in, Senator Santorum’s message was ultimately a hopeful one. He told the audience of how he got involved with the Convention of States, a movement he believes can restore America to the nation the founders originally intended for it to be.

To learn more about how COS is “an appropriate remedy” to the problems plaguing our country, watch the entirety of Senator Rick Santorum’s powerful speech below.

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:
