December 8, 2021 MeetingSpeaker: Ted KnapkeTitle: "What Civic and Business Leaders Can Do to Restore Our Democratic Republic" Brief description: American Promise is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization working to unite and empower Americans to build a lasting republic and healthy democracy. Our urgent goal is to amend the U.S. Constitution to enable Congress and the states to set reasonable limits on dark and big money spending in our elections. This work has direct relevance to community and business interests, especially to those leaders who value innovation, prosperity, and a level playing field for fair competition. As a member of several Rotaries over my career, I learned that our members share similar business and civic interests and values. The solution to nearly every problem facing the our country today is being stymied by very large campaign contributions which impact the votes of federal and state legislators. American Promise’s mission is to pass an amendment to the Constitution by July 4, 2026 which will restore power to all citizens. The fact that nearly 80% of voters support this need and that 22 states have already pledged to ratify the amendment is reason to believe it will happen. YouTube: https://youtu.be/D03AE_t0etQ |
