Restore America Corps

An idea of, for, and by the people!  Please read.  Please pray.  Please share.  Please be a voice.  Let's restore our nation to its near perfect status and one that lives  up to her promises.

Our country has always had problems.  What is different today is the problems are not analyzed and dealt with objectively.  Special interest lobbying accompanied by flawed thinking by legislators who no longer listen to ordinary citizens dominate the landscape and prevent issues from being dealt with.

Corporate paid lobbying should be illegal and might be unconstitutional.  It is not "free" speech but rather "paid" speech and it drowns out "free" speech.  Special interest legislation at the expense of the average citizen has created a very unjust and dangerous society.  Too much debt is dangerous.  Not being able to afford food is dangerous.

Prior to the 2020 election, there was such disappointment with the candidates and their ability to focus on the major issues impacting our country with guiding principles that Susan Lein thought the most patriotic activity she could do was to  write a newsletter called 20for2020 and send it monthly to 20  Government, Wall Street, Healthcare and Religious leaders.  20for2020 focused on issues and promulgated the use of the Catholic Social Teachings of : Human Dignity, Subsidiarity, Solidarity and the Common Good.  The newsletters can be found below.

This in turn inspired the development of spreadsheets of Foundational Acts and Events and 200 Acts and Events that got us to where we are today.  These spreadsheets present a legislative path for restoration.

This then inspired Restore America Corps- citizen led groups that focus on studying and solving our issues, all in the spirit of the dreams of the Kennedy brothers and Martin Luther King, Jr.  Please read and may you be inspired to have a collective dream too.
