Join COS co-founders Mark Meckler and Michael Farris at this town hall event and learn how you can help pass the COS resolution in 2023!

Yadkin Valley Event Center

No question our country is in trouble: +31 trillion dollars in debt (and growing), an out-of-control executive branch expanding federal power, a feckless Congress politicizing every issue while treating states as if we were merely departments of the federal government, and career politicians serving only themselves.Thanks to our nation&#x27;s Founders, an Article V convention of states provides a way to bypass Congress to propose constitutional amendments. To do that, 34 state legislatures must pass COS resolutions. 19 states have already done so. It is past time for North Carolina legislators to use the power vested in them by our Founders to rein in an out-of-control federal government. N﻿orth Carolina COS volunteers just completed an <a href="https://www.carolinajournal.com/opinion/elections-matter-an-open-letter-from-convention-of-states-to-the-nc-legislature/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">historic campaign effort</a> in the 2022 election cycle. Join us at this exciting Town Hall event to learn what the COS effort is all about nationally and in North Carolina, why it&#x27;s important to the future of our federal republic, and how you can help pass the COS resolution in the 2023 legislative session.  Our special guests will be COS co-founders <a href="https://www.facebook.com/markmecklerofficial/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Mark Meckler</a> and <a href="https://adflegal.org/biography/michael-farris" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Michael Farris</a><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-meckler-760654/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"></a>.
