'We need to show that the people that are running for office are willing to put the resource have the willingness to tackle the issue, to take on the mission, and to complete it till the end. And that's very simple. It's a very easy Pledge.

You're not asking them to do something they can't do...You're not telling them, 'I want you to promise to get me to the moon in 24 hours or this or that or the other.' What they're saying is a very simple thing:

Do you have the willingness put the resources to make America safe? Because this is part of making America safe."

- Michael Letts, InVEST USA
