Moderator: Gerry Yennie. We will have a guest moderator at each meeting, and Robert’s Rules of Order will prevail.

AGENDA:

2016 Presidential Candidates:
So far the 2016 leading candidates for President in my opinion are Governor Scott Walker, Dr. Ben Carson, or Mitt Romney. Others nominated are Rand Paul and Thomas Sowell. Who is your choice?

Article V: Convention of States as outlined in the U.S. Constitution. Discussion of this was combined with the Lands Resolution discussion and no action was decided upon. Lands Resolution update. How strong are we on this program to acquire lands promised us? Lands Resolution update: Legal standing for Wyoming to receive land back from the federal government was uncertain. John Brown will bring documents to the next meeting to help us decide on a course of action.

The Environmental Protection Agency has been before the Supreme Court claiming they have unlimited authority to regulate. Who created the EPA? Under whose authority do they operate? How many other agencies have assumed dictatorial powers. This was also blended with the above discussions.

Tort Reform – We are one of the few countries in the world that doesn’t have the loser pay all court costs. Cancel the Equal Access law that is being grossly abused.

Term Limits – Pro & Con. The founders of our Constitution did not envision the Congress being in the hands of professional politicians. They did predict what would happen if our politicians were picked by political parties. I think it is time to restore their vision.

Are Education and Social Values important? Are Executive Orders that usurp the Constitution acceptable?
