An RTBA Sponsor in Congress?

On today’s Downsize DC Conference Call (2-hour radio show), which starts at 3:06 PM Eastern (2:06 PM Central, 1:06 PM Mountain, and 12:06 PM Pacific) I’ll be joined by a candidate for Congress who pledges to sponsor (or co-sponsor, as the case may require) . . .

* The Read the Bills Act
* The One Subject at a Time Act
* The Write the Laws Act
* The Enumerated Powers Act

His name is B.J. Lawson and he’s running in the 4th district in North Carolina. Yeah, a candidate. So what’s special about B.J.?

* He’s an MD and built a very successful, medical software business.
* He won the Republican primary with 71% of the vote.
* His campaign has already raised and received more than $120,000.
* He’s a DC Downsizer.

Those are the first steps to victory. And though I’m anti-partisan and I believe a movement to really Downsize DC is still too young to think about electoral campaigns — we are, after all, in the early stages of building an army — I found B.J.’s campaign story and progress compelling. I believe you’re going to want to hear it.

Also, I’ll be joined by Carah Ong, Iran Policy Analyst at the Center for Arms Control and Nonproliferation, who is coordinating a broad coalition of notable individuals and organizations that includes show sponsor DownsizeDC.org. Carah will tell us about the National Call-In Day for Diplomacy with Iran.

Of course, I’ll also have an update from my other show sponsor, Gun Owners of America.
