Please visit the newly-launched:
Tenth Amendment Center
Some of the greatest, and most common, violations of the Constitution are directed at the 10th Amendment. This amendment made it explicit that the federal government is limited only to the powers specifically given to it in the Constitution. No more, no less. Period.
This means that the federal government doesn't have the power to wage the drug war, invade another nation without a declaration of war from Congress, search us at airports without probable cause, or give away billions of dollars of our money as "foreign aid" (plus much more...)
The 10th is plainly written:
"The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

We're working on a number of projects that will not only, help grow the Populist Party as a viable grassroots organization, but provide a place for each of us to focus on issues we find most important.
Here's a brief overview:
West Coast Populist Party Affiliate
coordinated by Helen Schmidt. ETA March, 2006. Contact her with questions at: hschmidt@populistamerica.com
Society for the Study of Populist Communications
A research initiative investigating new forms of communication resulting from the proliferation of Social Media. To get involved contact Russell Cole - russellcole@populistamerica.com
Fourth Amendment Center
launching February, 2007
Fifth Amendment Center
launching March-April, 2007
Stop the Federal Reserve
an organization dedicated to the closure of the Federal Reserve System. ETA - Late Summer, 2007. Contact Michael Boldin - mboldin@populistamerica.com if you're able to help.
Close the FCC
An organization dedicated to opening the airwaves to ordinary people. Free speech isn't just the right of mega-corporations. With expensive licensing and massive regulation, the FCC makes it so that average people aren't able to broadcast - only those who have millions and millions of dollars. This media cartel is clearly one of the greatest threats to our liberty. | |

Get Involved Today!
We're still some time away from making the Populist Party the living, breathing, active grassroots organization that we know it will be - but - getting closer and closer every day.
Each day we have people contacting us asking how to get involved. Although we're not at the point of local organizing, there are still a number of things that you can do to help the Populist Party continue to grow. Here's some ideas:
Join the Populist Party
Strength in numbers is the key. This is primarily a symbolic membership, as there are no fees required to join. But, as membership numbers grow, people start to pay more attention to our drive for liberty. Joining is your way of saying "Yes, we need to make a change in how America is governed!" So make a statement in support of liberty, and join the Populist Party!
Contribute
We're not going to be shy about asking for money. Any amount you can donate will help keep the Populist Party growing and all our affiliated websites active. (plus, it'll help us get new projects off the ground)
