Gold & Silver Bill Introduced in Georgia!

0 votes

Today - Friday, February 13 - the fight for a return to Constitutional money begins.

HB 430, the "Constitutional Tender Act," has been introduced in the Georgia House of Representatives.

As noted, the bill number is HB 430. Since the House isn't back in session until Tuesday 2/17, it won't be "official" until 9:00 a.m. that morning, and then the link to it will be live. But the bill is THERE!

HB 430 was introduced by Rep. Bobby Franklin (R-43), who is a member of the Banks & Banking Committee. Bobby is a good friend of ours, and a good friend of the U.S. Constitution.

NOW THE FIGHT BEGINS. The first step needed is for every citizen of Georgia to contact their State Representative TODAY and ask him or her to co-sponsor this bill. Here's an example of what you can say when you call or write:

As your constituent, I'm contacting you to ask you to please co-sponsor HB 430, the Constitutional Tender Act.

This bill is needed because Georgia, like every other state, is in violation of the U.S. Constitution without such a bill (because the State is making some other "Thing" a Tender in Payment of Debts, both to and by the State). As a state legislator, you swear an oath to uphold that Constitution, so ethically and morally you need to do whatever the Constitution requires.

This type of bill is also needed because, due to the ever-widening circle of economic disaster that is affecting the citizens of every State, we MUST do something to at least begin the process of restoring sound money and a sound economy, even if (and especially if) the current federal administration refuses to do so.

Please, put the people of Georgia and their well-being above any partisanship or politics, and especially above any fears about your "reputation" with others. What is important is the welfare of the citizens of this state, and the need to abide by the U.S. Constitution.

PLEASE, co-sponsor HB 430, the "Constitutional Tender Act," TODAY. Contact Rep. Bobby Franklin's office at 404-656-0152 to become a co-sponsor. I will be watching your actions on this bill very closely, and will remember them on election day. Thank you."

If you don't know how to contact your state Representative, you can go to the GA Secretary of State's "Poll Locator" website, enter your information there, click the Submit button, then scroll down to see what Georgia House District you live in. Then go to the GA House website, find your House District number, and click on your Representative's "Fact Sheet" to get his or her contact information.

Or, if you don't want to go through all that, you can just call the Secretary of State's office at 404-656-2881 and ask them to help you contact your state legislator.

PLEASE, contact your State Representative TODAY and ask him or her to co-sponsor HB 430. It's time to return to Constitutional money -- and this is a great start. Thanks.

I'm unsure as to if these are all functioning emails but the house.ga.gov ones should work. Please lets have an email bomb to let them know that we support HB430 put forth by Representative Franklin. Sound money is not only in the bests interests for We The People and our society as a whole but is also Constitutional, which these representatives have taken an oath to uphold.

Re: Gold & Silver Bill Introduced in Georgia!

Yes and no. :-)

I believe the goal is the same -- getting sound money back, and using the bottom-up approach of the state legislatures to do it -- but we deliberately steered clear of a lot of the technicalities of the Gold Money Bill, like e-gold etc., in order to make it simple enough for politicians to maybe understand it. If you know what I mean. :-)

Also, we wanted to offer ONLY the option of gold or silver coins as tender in payment of state debts -- and NO Federal Reserve Notes -- in order to stick to what the Constitution actually says in Article I, Section 10. We think it gives us a "high ground" to fight from.

Thanks for your support!
