RESOLUTION
OF THE
VOTING MEMBERS OF
Americans for
Integrity in Government, LLC
Pursuant to the Texas State Statues which authorizes the
Members of a limited liability company to take action with or
without a meeting if the action is taken by all Members and the
action is evidenced by one or more written consents describing the
action taken, signed by the Members, and included in the minutes or
filed with the company records reflecting the action taken, the
following resolutions and actions are hereby adopted by the members:
PURPOSE OF MEETING
“When in
the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to
dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another,
and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal
station to which the Laws of Nature and Nature’s God entitle them, a
decent respect that they should declare the causes which impel them
to the separation.- We hold these truths to be self-evident, that
all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator
with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty
and the pursuit of Happiness.- That to secure these rights,
Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers
from the consent of the governed, -“ These were the words of our
founding fathers that precluded the writing of the Declaration of
Independence.
We
recognize that these sentiments expressed by the original thirteen
colonies are more relevant today than ever before in these great
states of the United States of America. Our position is not one of
separation, but one of representation. We are not advocating
independence, but rather a return to the principles our founding
fathers so masterly crafted into the Constitution of the United
States.
The
seriousness of the day is due to the violation of our trust by our
elected officials. We do not take this undertaking lightly. For
the sake of all concerns, present and future, a return to a
government of the people, by the people and for the people must
occur. We will be unyielding in our pursuit, advocating civil
disobedience as allowed under the first amendment of the US
Constitution while recognizing our right to keep and bear arms for
the defense of the people against the Federal Government.
These
resolutions are intended to rekindle the fires of the morally just
and give the government back to those that are governed, not unlike
two hundred and thirty-three years ago. Our goal is to prevent the
desire and need from dissolution of this union, as well as to
redirect the anger of the people to a non-violent resolution.
“A
decent respect that they should declare the causes that impel them
to separate”, accordingly, we declare as justification for this
action the following:
If there
was a fault with the Constitution of the United of States of
America, it would the founding fathers underestimation of the
corruptible side human nature. They believed that the people chosen
to govern would always serve with selfless actions, void of any
desire or appetite for personal gain, that common good would be the
rule of the day.
We submit
the following for consideration:
(A)
Preamble to the Constitution of the
United – “WE THE PEOPLE OF THE UNTIED STATES, in order to form a
more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility,
provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and
secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our prosperity, do
ordain and establish this Constitution for the Untied States of
America.
The unadulterated
self-indulgence of our elected few has perverted the
Legislative process to the point that the “union is no longer
perfect”, “domestic tranquility is in jeopardy”, our enemies and
non-citizenry enjoy more defense than the citizenry, “general
welfare” has been interpreted to be all things to specific groups at
the cost of a few, “blessings of liberty and the prosperity
they provide” are under attack due to the oppressive and
irresponsible legislation Congress continues to approve;
(B)
Article – Section IV – Every
state in the union shall be guaranteed a Republican Form of
government. Federal legislation requiring unfunded Federal mandates
has and continues to undermine state’s rights. The
Constitution promises protection from invasion, but we would argue
that “invasion” occurs in many ways;
(C)
Article V – Section V: Treason
against the United States, shall consist only in levying war against
them, or in adhering to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort.
The United States is under war declaration with two different
Countries and an undeclared, ever present war with terrorism. The
continued funding of terrorist states in the name of “aid” is
tantamount to treason.
(D)
Taxation without representation.
Congress continues to jeopardize the financial security of this
country and in turn its people by deficit spending, entitlement
growth and lobbyist pandering for personal gain.
WE
RESOLVE, FIRST AND FOEMOST,
“WE
CAN DO ALL THINGS THROUGH CHRIST WHO STRENGTENS US ”, Phil
4:13. Our strength comes from the only living God. Our purpose is
consistent with His truth. Our goal is not to impose our faith on
anyone individual, but rather through example as He showed us,
spread the message of hope, love and compassion for all concerns.
Prayer will be our shield, our direction will be God’s direction and
we will prevail in our endeavors if it is His will. We recognize
the good in human nature that only comes from God while
understanding the parallel opposite of evil that exists in every
human being. This absence of God is our acknowledged adversary.
For those Americans with differing faiths we would seek common
ground. We believe every American can acknowledge the Judeo
Christian Moral Values that our founding fathers wove into the
fabric of every aspect of the American way of life can bind us all
with the objective of instilling INTEGRITY BACK INTO OUR
POLITICAL PROCESS.
WE
RESOLVE THAT OUR NAME SHALL BE;
“AMERICANS FOR INTEGRITY
IN GOVERNEMENT”
WE
RESOLVE THAT OUR CREED SHALL BE,
“GIVING GOVERNMENT BACK
TO THE GOVERNED”
WE
RESOLVE,
AMERICANS FOR INTEGRITY IN GOVERNMENT will pursue
the following Initiatives to effect positive change in
the political process;
TRANSPARENCY, INTEGRITY
and HONESTY
We demand Transparency,
Integrity, and Honesty in those that are elected to do the
peoples’ business. The focus will consist of multiple measures to
educate the electorate, monitor legislation, enact and enforce
Campaign Finance Reform, expose lobbyist pandering and
any other means deemed necessary to expose the individual greed and
corruption that threatens the American way of life. We will
pursue legislation that will stop “SPECIAL INTEREST” earmarks that
benefit a single group. Only those projects that demonstrate a
National interest will be viewed as acceptable. We
will demand debate and an accounting of every appropriation bill
before a vote in order to educate the voter of the issues at hand.
Spending Bills that do not provide for Common Defense, National
Infrastructure Initiatives or Nationally Warranted Projects will be
scrutinized as to their purpose and their originator;
REINSTATEMENT of the
REPUBLIC FORM of GOVERNMENT AS
PROMISED BY THE
CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES
(STATES RIGHTS)
Unfunded
Federal Mandates, overreaching legislation, and partisan politics
undermine the ability of every state to govern its people with the
consideration given the uniqueness that encompasses every states
makeup. We will pursue initiatives at the state level to
force the states to take back their responsibilities that have been
voluntarily or involuntarily given to the Federal government;
FAIR TAXATION FOR ALL
Simplification of the tax code is paramount in regaining the public
trust. All methods of taxation will be reviewed, with no one
sector, industry, or individual being given special consideration.
Those methods of taxation that provide for the common good will be
identified. Taxpayers will no longer be asked to
subsidize, via the tax code, corporate business practices that are
contrary to good business practices. A review of those
“speculative vehicles” permitted in today‘s trading of securities
will be performed with the goal being to place business fundamentals
back into the investment and trading
processes. We will seek a pay as you go philosophy.
These
initiatives will be fulfilled unless compelling rationale can be
shown by the elected that they would be a detriment to the common
good.
We,
prayerfully, submit this RESOLUTION on this day MARCH 20, 2009 to
our Lord and Savior for consideration,
WITH NO
FURTHER BUSINESS,
WE PRAYED;
WE ADJUOURNED
