Rick Hubbard will be leading an interesting discussion next Saturday at the South Burlington Public Library, now located within the University Mall. It's a vibrant space with easy access for all.
Come participate, collaborate, and analyze. This issue is important to us all, regardless of our ideology.
WHEN: Saturday, March 17, 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon
WHERE: South Burlington Public Library, University Mall, 155 Dorset Street, South Burlington
Repairing the financing and structure of our federal political system so our Washington politicians will properly represent the interests of the vast majority of American citizens is considered by many to be the paramount public policy issue of our time, for it goes to the very core of our democracy and representation.
South Burlington resident Rick Hubbard, a retired Vermont attorney, former economic consultant, and recent author of "The Democracy Amendments," will lead the presentation and strategy discussion about how to best achieve effective reform.
Loaned iClicker devices record and present collective audience responses about:
*** How serious are powerful threats to diminish or lose our form of democracy?
*** What current practices prevent proper representation?
*** Is real reform most likely to come from Congress, the U.S. Supreme Court, from citizens and state legislatures, or through Article V as provided by our Founders?
*** Is effective reform by statute or by constitutional amendment more likely?
*** Is it fixable without collaboration across all ideologies?
*** What must effective reform include?
We all have a stake in proper representation. Please be part of this important discussion.
