Corrupt legislators have been overturning state and local ballot initiatives with increasing rapidity. It's not because the state disagrees. These actions are triggered by corporate interests that oppose the local initiatives that would inhibit their profitability.

Thank you CELDF for assisting Columbus, Toledo and other communities so they can implement legislation that improves their communities. State and federal governments have become corrupted by corporate influence. Maybe someday the US will have a democracy. That would be a novelty.

Rights of Nature only make sense in terms of Human Rights. Humans are the only ones who have rights, because we're the only ones who can defend rights. Sociocracy would help us defend our rights better and defend our rights to healthy ecosystems. https://www.sociocracyforall.org/

I think CELDF and your clients would greatly benefit from adopting Sociocracy. I think Everyone would benefit from it. It's similar to Unanimous Rule, or Consensus, but much better. See https://www.sociocracyforall.org/.
