National Board of Advisors

As important as who these individuals are, is who they are not. They’re not Washington DC elected officials. They’re not Wall Street bankers. They are people who work day-in, day-out with voters, activists and Main Street businesses across America. They understand our nation’s economy and our nation’s freedoms are imperiled by out-of-control Federal deficits and the rising debt our nation owes foreign entities, many hostile to America’s future.

We are fortunate to have each serve this noble cause.
