Backs Republican Initiative to Engage the American People

Congressman Doug Lamborn (CO-05) is calling on his constituents to participate in an exciting and unprecedented effort to engage the American people in the process of building a new policy agenda for America.

Through America Speaking Out, the American people will be given a voice in setting the priorities for a national agenda. At town hall meetings, online at AmericaSpeakingOut.com, and through new communications tools, all Americans will have an opportunity to be a part of this effort.

"Coloradans, indeed all Americans, are rejecting the top-down approach to government that House Democrats are imposing on the country. Under Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid’s leadership, Congress has repeatedly ignored the will of the American people and pursued a partisan agenda to increase taxes, spending, and the size of government.

“Whether it's been forcing a government takeover of health care, passing a National Energy Tax, piling up record deficits, or ignoring our nation's jobs crisis, the actions of this Congress have been contrary to the will of the American people. Leadership requires the desire to listen to the American people and a recognition that any new agenda should start with them.” – Congressman Doug Lamborn (CO-05)

House Republicans plan to offer the nation a new set of policy solutions, but rather than handing an agenda down from Washington, they want to include the American people in building it. This exciting and unprecedented outreach to constituents, regardless of party affiliation, will continue throughout the summer. This project will feature innovative web tools and mobile applications that will bring town hall meetings directly to anywhere Americans are discussing our nation’s challenges.
