Just received an email from Ken Buck about his post election plans. This guy would have been a truly stellar addition in the senate with Rand...
Here is the email about his new organization that will work for a Balanced Budget Amendment to the Constitution...
To that end, and in keeping with the themes we campaigned on, tomorrow I will be announcing the formation of a non-profit organization called Balance America with the purpose of educating, researching, and training leaders in all 50 states to ratify a Balanced Budget Amendment (BBA) to the U.S. Constitution.
Tomorrow morning I’ll be sending out a press release and the web site, www.Balance-America.org, will go live. I hope you will please take a look to offer your best advice and pointers about how I can continue to serve the grassroots and our cause in the best manner possible.
You can reach me directly at Ken@Balance-America.org to let me know your valued thoughts and suggestions.
Since the election in November, many DC politicians have jumped on the BBA bandwagon and that’s great. Better late than never.
But, as you know, the solutions to our nation’s problems don’t come from Washington. They come from grassroots Americans working to overcome the mess DC has created.
That’s why, rather than try to push from the top down in DC like everyone else, Balance America will target the grassroots at the state level first to empower them with education and research so they can push from the bottom up to affect real and lasting change.
With attention focused on a BBA at only the national level in Washington, the need for state-based education and research is even more important than ever.
Currently no private organization or government entity has accurate data on how many of the 50 state legislatures are prepared to ratify a Federal Balanced Budget Amendment.
Because our U.S. Constitution requires ¾ of the states to pass a BBA, we must begin right away to clear such a huge hurdle.
By establishing state affiliates in all 50 states, starting here at home with our first state affiliate Balance Colorado, Balance America will help jump start the US Constitution’s ratification process through education and research that will empower Americans at the grassroots, rather than the top down politicians who will say anything from Washington.
My hope is that I can count on your blessing as I step out again to attempt to help fix the many problems our nation is facing, starting with our most dire problem of spending ourselves toward national bankruptcy.
Without a BBA to rein in out of control spending, an insolvent government won’t be able to handle the many other issues that Americans need help with.
I believe that our national survival depends on immediate spending restraint and the BBA is a much-needed and common-sense place to start.
I hope you agree, dear friend.
Because you played such an important role last year and have been so faithful to me and Perry, I feel I owe it to you to seek your advice first and to give you advanced notice before I go public tomorrow.
So please check out the web site www.Balance-America.org tomorrow and let me know what you think at Ken@Balance-America.org.
Gratefully,
Ken Buck
