Conservatives,
One year ago, I joined over 80 other conservative leaders on the grounds of George Washington's Mount Vernon estate to reaffirm our commitment to the Founding Principles of this great nation. We signed the Mount Vernon Statement and dedicated ourselves to a return to Constitutional Conservatism.
In the past year, over 200,000 Americans have joined us, adding their names to The Mount Vernon Statement. Today, I'd like to ask you to do the same. The principles on which our nation was founded have only endured because of those willing to defend them. They are the birthright of every citizen of this country, and we must not let them slip away.
There are those who say that adherence to these ideals is cumbersome and that our founding principles should be swept aside while the federal government grows to meet our every need. By adding your name to the Mount Vernon Statement, you'll be telling these people that they are wrong and that don't speak for the rest of us.
To commemorate the one year anniversary of The Mount Vernon Statement, we've put together a short video message. I invite you to enjoy the video and please, share it with your friends - ask them to sign this important document as well. Many sacrifices were made to enable us to enjoy the freedoms guaranteed to us in the Constitution; we must not be the generation that stood by and did nothing when our freedoms and our principles were attacked by those who should be defending them!
