Dear Fellow American,

Hillsdale College has selected you to participate in its National Referendum on the Administrative State.

Responding will only take a few minutes. Your input as an informed patriot is needed right away…because our country is facing a constitutional crisis.

It's a crisis that involves a fundamental political question: who rules whom?

The Constitution established a limited government in which the people ruled through their elected officials. Under this form of government, America became the freest and most prosperous nation in history.

Today, however, our constitutional system is one that increasingly exists in name only.

The Constitution of "We the People" is being replaced by an elite, out-of-touch, and unaccountable administrative state that rules without the consent of American citizens.

This means we live in an era of growing bureaucratic despotism, manifested in an administrative state that bypasses the Constitution, rejects the separation of powers, and replaces the rule of law with regulations.

But we can't just TALK about the problem. We also have to TAKE ACTION—to DO SOMETHING about it, while there's still time to save our country.

That is why I'm writing to you today.

Hillsdale College is committed to returning to the Constitution of "We the People"—before it's too late.

To do that, I need your input. What are your opinions on this topic—knowing that we can propose SOLUTIONS that will restore liberty?

Please let me know your thoughts today by answering the National Referendum on the Administrative State using this secure link:

When you send in your survey, I hope you will also consider supporting Hillsdale College with a tax-deductible gift.

The rise of the administrative state is a grave threat to our country.

To counter this threat, Hillsdale sponsors several educational outreach efforts—including Imprimis, free online courses, programs on our Washington, D.C., campus, and a growing network of classical K-12 schools and homeschoolers—to teach citizens about the meaning of the Constitution and the importance of our founding principles of liberty.

Your gift of at least $15—or even $25, $35, $50, $100, or more if you're especially motivated to TAKE ACTION—will help us to expand these educational initiatives that are reaching and teaching millions.

Your support of these efforts is essential because Hillsdale refuses to take ONE PENNY of government funding.

So please complete your National Referendum on the Administrative State and consider giving your most generous tax-deductible contribution.

Thank you for being on the side of the Constitution and liberty!

Warm regards,

Larry P. Arnn
President, Hillsdale College
Pursuing Truth and Defending Liberty Since 1844
