Dear Patriot,
We need your help! Our Virginia state Delegate, Gordon Helsel, has not yet committed to supporting the only constitutional solution to an out-of-control federal government—the Article V Convention of States.
We need Delegate Helsel to vote YES for our Article V resolution when the General Assembly convenes in January. We are working hard across the state to ensure we have the votes to pass our Article V resolution. We need to reach out now to Delegates who are still uncommitted and urge them to vote YES!
Please call Delegate Helsel's district office today at 757-969-9036. Tell the staff that you are a supporter of Convention of the States, and you want your Delegate to vote for Delegate Scott Lingamfelter's Convention of the States resolution in 2016.
If you prefer to send an email, that will also be helpful. Delegate Helsel's email address is DelGHelsel@house.virginia.gov. Craft your own email message or use the model message below.
Please act today—the timing is important, because we want our Delegate to receive a concentrated outpouring from Convention of States supporters this week.
Please let me know what response you receive from Delegate Helsel.
Thank you for taking 5 minutes today to take your stand against federal overreach and defend our individual liberties.
Sincerely,
David Dietrich
District Captain VA 91
Convention of States
Model email message to your Legislator:
Dear Delegate Helsel,
As your constituent, I am writing to ask you to support Delegate Scott Lingamfelter's Convention of States resolution during the 2016 General Assembly.
Our federal government has become way too big and way too powerful. Article V of the United States Constitution gives the state legislatures the power to bypass Congress and rein in the federal government. I urge you to vote for Delegate Lingamfelter's Convention of States resolution. We want Virginia to be one of the 34 states that trigger a convention for the limited purpose of proposing amendments that restrain federal power and restore states' rights and individual liberties.
Please use the power our Founding Fathers gave you to rein in the out-of-control federal government.
Respectfully,
[Insert your name]
