| Hi John, Federal overreach didn’t happen overnight. It took decades of growing bureaucracy and diminishing state power to bring us to where we are today. In his recent op-ed, economist Adam Millsap shared some alarming statistics about how the federal government has grown, overshadowing state governments. “In 1929, prior to the Great Depression, federal spending as a percentage of GDP was 3%. In 2023, it was 22%.” The good news? We have the tools to turn it around. Here’s the bottom line: For too long, Washington has dictated top-down policies that local governments are better equipped to handle. The result has been inefficiency, waste, and a loss of trust in public institutions. It’s time to restore the constitutional balance — and empower states to lead again. 👉 Read Adam’s op-ed on rebuilding state authority and join us in rethinking how government should work for you. |
