Eighty-one year old Senator Mitch McConnell "froze" again during a press conference. Ninety-year old Senator Dianne Feinstein has to have her staff tell her how to vote! We need term limits NOW! But even though we have 101 co-signers of our term limits legislation in the House, the professional politicians are still blocking a vote. Please make a donation today to fund ads and grassroots events to force a vote on term limits in the House. The American people see as plain as day why we need term limits. Congress is out of control. It is run by a permanent class of politicians who never intend to leave office...even when they can no longer physically do the job. That's why we need to force a vote on term limits in the House. Philip Blumel President U.S. Term Limits - www.termlimits.com 1250 Connecticut Avenue NW Suite 700 | Washington, District of Columbia 20036 (202) 261-3532 | info@termlimits.com

ICYMI: This Duluth News Tribune editorial gets it right, we ain't no fools: "In a traditional bonding year for the Minnesota Legislature, with a $3.7 billion state budget surplus, and with the eager-to-invest DFL still in charge of the state House, state Senate, and governor’s office, Duluth and Northeastern Minnesota would be foolish not to be lobbying hard in St. Paul this legislative session. Well, we ain’t no fools." It was a very effective and productive few days in Saint Paul last week, with record attendance for the Duluth Area Chamber's 27th annual Duluth & St. Louis County at the Capitol Days. The event may be over, but the work continues. The Duluth Area Chamber and Chamber Foundation will continue to work with dozens of key stakeholders throughout the region, as well as a variety of elected officials on both sides of the aisle, to advocate for key legislative priorities. Top priorities this legislative session include housing, economic development, child care, workforce development, tax and permitting reform, and bonding requests. More specifically, state funding is being sought to help pay for the replacement of the aging air traffic control tower at Duluth International Airport, for the Duluth Entertainment Convention Center, to help with the rehabilitation of the old Duluth Armory on London Road, and for upkeep work at the St. Louis County Depot downtown, and other projects. The chamber and the Northland’s citizen lobbyists are also advocating this week for a tax-credit bill that would support development. “There’s a lot at stake this legislative session, and it feels like we are well-positioned to help deliver for our region, said Daniel Fanning, VP of Policy at the Duluth Area Chamber. "We can’t take anything for granted, which is why we’ll continue to do all we can to support these priorities, our members, and the local and regional business community.” Chamber leaders have already been lobbying ahead of the citizens-fueled event and are reporting early-on progress. This includes state funds to go toward “much-needed” hangars at the 148th Fighter Wing Air National Guard base. Full editorial: https://lnkd.in/dj7ZASKQ

I help developers of homes, infrastructure & business space get regulatory approvals, by leveraging public support.
Has it all been leading up to this...? Let me take you on a whistle stop tour of my career so far. (Trust me, there IS a point.... 😉 ) 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗨𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗬𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀: Took a part-time job as a Tory telephone canvasser. Spent 100s of hours talking to voters. Begin to see what people care about is 𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑙𝑦 different to what insiders think. 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟕: Join the first Boris campaign for Mayor of London. Everyone tells me he'll lose. 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟖: Boris wins the mayoralty with over a million votes. Learn about tight, research based messaging & focus from the expert Sir Lynton Crosby AO 𝑀𝑒 𝑝𝑟𝑒𝑠𝑒𝑛𝑡𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑑𝑟𝑎𝑓𝑡 𝑒𝑛𝑣𝑖𝑟𝑜𝑛𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑖𝑓𝑒𝑠𝑡𝑜. 𝐿𝑦𝑛𝑡𝑜𝑛: "𝐼𝑠 𝑖𝑡 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑐𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑒?" 𝑀𝑒: "𝑁𝑜." 𝐿𝑦𝑛𝑡𝑜𝑛: "𝑀𝑎𝑘𝑒 𝑖𝑡 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑐𝑟𝑖𝑚𝑒." 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟖-𝟎𝟗: City Hall. See how political decision making is driven by instinct, fear and eminence. '𝑆ℎ𝑒 𝑢𝑠𝑒𝑑 𝑡𝑜 𝑤𝑜𝑟𝑘 𝑎𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝐵𝐵𝐶, 𝑠ℎ𝑒 𝑚𝑢𝑠𝑡 𝑏𝑒 𝑟𝑖𝑔ℎ𝑡.' 𝟐𝟎𝟎𝟗-𝟏𝟏: Learn about agency world at Lexington. Meet Wyn Evans. 𝑊𝑖𝑛 𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑟. 𝐾𝑒𝑒𝑝 𝑟𝑒𝑡𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑒𝑟. 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟐: 2nd Boris for London campaign. Win again (just). Have fun trolling the media with a 9-point plan that they repeat 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝑒 because they thought it should have been 10. 𝐴𝑠 𝑙𝑜𝑛𝑔 𝑎𝑠 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑦'𝑟𝑒 𝑡𝑎𝑙𝑘𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑎𝑏𝑜𝑢𝑡 𝑦𝑜𝑢𝑟 𝑚𝑒𝑠𝑠𝑎𝑔𝑒, 𝑦𝑜𝑢'𝑟𝑒 𝑤𝑖𝑛𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔. 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟐/𝟏𝟑: Create video production company. Put filmmaking skills together with communications knowledge. Work with Forty Shillings and help London Biggin Hill Airport mobilise c.30,000 residents to vote FOR airport expansion. 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟔: Lose the mayoral election with Zac Goldsmith and learn you can't fight the last war. Meet Michael Hantman and co-found a market research company. 𝟐𝟎𝟏𝟗: Conservative leadership election with Boris and briefly at 10 Downing Street. Confirm the squeakiest wheel gets the political grease - and that silent majorities exist in 𝑚𝑎𝑛𝑦 𝑎𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑠 𝑜𝑓 𝑝𝑜𝑙𝑖𝑐𝑦. 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎: Meet Cherry Norton and co-found Just Build Homes with Wyn Evans and Michael Hantman. Test a proposition: 𝑊ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑖𝑓 𝑦𝑜𝑢 𝑐𝑜𝑢𝑙𝑑 𝑚𝑜𝑏𝑖𝑙𝑖𝑠𝑒 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑠𝑖𝑙𝑒𝑛𝑡, 𝑝𝑟𝑜-𝑏𝑢𝑖𝑙𝑑𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑚𝑎𝑗𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑡𝑦 𝑖𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑝𝑙𝑎𝑛𝑛𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑠𝑦𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑚? 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏 - 𝟐𝟑: Confirm it works, regularly achieving c.80-100 supporters per planning application. Use the same approach with Hyperoptic to inspire Ofcom to investigate mid-contract price rises. And that brings us to today... With the launch of Shared Voice bringing it all together. Starting in the world of planning comms. With a simple proposition. Talk to the people who stand to gain from what you're proposing. In fact, make your 𝑤ℎ𝑜𝑙𝑒 communications plan about this. So politicians have the confidence to approve your scheme. ______ How has your career journey been so far? Let me know in the comments below. 👇 #planning #communications #housing #property

Today is the Big Day of Giving – where Sacramento steps up to support their favorite nonprofits. And this year, we need your help. Financial support for journalism organizations has declined steeply in the Post-Pandemic era. Inflation and uncertainty about the economy have led to lower revenues for both for-profit and nonprofit publishers. Many publications have had to cut staff and eliminate projects in the past year. So far, Capitol Weekly has been lucky - like most journalism orgs, our revenue dropped last year, but we have kept our staffing levels, and continued to produce programs like Capitol Weekly, The Roundup, California Conferences, The Capitol Weekly Podcast, and our Public Policy Journalism Internship. We even added new features like The Micheli Minute and Rising Stars. Open California, the 501c3 nonprofit publisher of Capitol Weekly is taking part in this year’s Big Day of Giving - we hope you will consider supporting us today. None of our programs would be possible without the support of people like you who believe in the value of public policy journalism. And, all donations (up to $2500) we receive during this year's Big Day of Giving campaign will be matched by a generous grant from one of our longterm supporters, the Tribal Alliance of Sovereign Nations. We hope you will help us make the most of this incredible offer! At Capitol Weekly, our mission is to create original, in-depth coverage of current policy and political issues, and engage our audience through both online and offline mediums. Your donation is crucial to helping us continue. We're hoping to make this our best Big Day of Giving ever! - your donation of any size will help us get there. Please help us make our goal! https://lnkd.in/gybWcmhB

I am concerned that we are going to be dragged into a bankers war in the Middle East and that our corrupt Congress will reinstate the draft and send young men and women to slaughter. This is why it is imperative that we fortify our counties NOW from this tyranny by growing a network of constitutional sheriff offices around the country. The Sheriff of your county can protect residents from government overreach. Eventually, as we grow stronger in courage and in number, we will arrest these congressional traitors, one by one, county by county, as they return to their districts for business or whatever. As we grow more confident in how Operation: Deputy Dawg is working, we may find the courage to start hanging the traitors, one by one, county by county, under the auspices of the County Sheriff Office. Homework: Find out who your county sheriff is. Put the office contact info in your phone. Read about your sheriff; watch some videos about them; subscribe to their social media page; get on their newsletter. Attend an event hosted by your Sheriff‘s office. Get to know the deputies by name. Volunteer to work a booth for them at an upcoming outdoor fair or market. If they don‘t have outreach programs like this, see if you can organize something. We want people everywhere to know about the power of the County Sheriff’s Office. https://lnkd.in/ghV72VdS
