Ultimately, the success of a Convention of States depends on the citizens of the United States. The grassroots will be the engine that drives this project. If Americans are willing to sacrifice their time and energy, there is still a chance to halt the tyrannical abuses of the federal government. In each state, we will appoint three statewide volunteer leaders: the State Director, Legislative Liaison, and Coalitions Director. These individuals will organize the movement across the state, coordinating volunteers, connecting with state legislators, and building the grassroots network.
In each state legislative district, a District Captain will be appointed to coordinate and mobilize volunteers in their district. There are a number of ways volunteers will be able to be involved in helping move the project forward:
Recruiting friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to join the effort.
Writing letters, making calls, and/or visiting state legislators offices to encourage them to support a Convention of States.
Attending legislative hearings to show support for a Convention of States.
Working on campaigns to elect candidates who support the cause.
Organizing and speaking at events in your area as a representative for COS.

The Founders gave us the tools to curb the federal abuse of power. Its time we stand up and use them to preserve libertynot only for ourselves but for posterity.
