WELCOME TO HONOR IN OFFICE

FINALLY, Something Liberals And Conservatives Can Agree On:

As long as legislators make deals behind closed doors, can pass laws without having read and understood them or know the ramifications of passing such a law, and can vote on laws without providing advance notice to the citizens, our nation will always be in jeopardy and subject to political whims, pressures and special interests, rather than to the citizens.

No citizen, whether liberal or conservative, wants a poorly thought out law passed. So, we are converging June 12 on Capitol Hill to demand Congressional Reform. Please sign our petition here.

Proper due diligence on bills and transparency before-the-fact are key to having honest government of, by and for the people. At all levels of government, our politicians should know what they are passing into law. If they have nothing to hide and are truly proud of their work, they should have no problem showing us their handi-work well in advance of the final vote.

Both of the major parties need to step up and start doing a better job and that starts with requiring their candidates to independently study the problems the bills are supposed to solve, and seek input from the citizens they are supposed to be representing.

Documentary:

Fools on the Hill, our documentary about transparency and accountability has now been completed. It fairly covers what happens to citizens and our country when slipshod laws are passed by politicians who haven't done any kind of a due diligence. As a backdrop to this documentary and with some levity to keep things light, it follows the trials and tribulations of a person who attempts to get an initiative requiring transparency and accountability on the ballot.

To see our legislators in action, take a look at this youtube video

Fast forward through the first 30 seconds. Comparable misconduct occurs in every state in the nation, and in Congress. This is why we need Honor In Office.

Sincerely,

Jerrol LeBaron

Executive Director
