We are your Allen, Lucas and Parker friends and neighbors united by a common concern: the direction our country is taking. Most of us have voted in the past, but have done little to influence the direction our representatives have taken once in office. Our elected officials have blatantly drifted from our constitution. Our liberties and freedoms are quickly eroding. It's time "We the People" tak
e action, defend our constitution, demand moral and ethical leadership, and preserve the American dream. Allen Area Patriots, along with other organizations, provide education on issues, political processes, and current events that are critical to our community, schools, county, state and federal government. Instead of trying to obtain information individually, we work collectively on issues and options. We occasionally provide an opportunity for candidates and elected officials to speak at our meetings to give us a clear understanding of who they are, why we should/should not vote for them. We organize with other groups for rallies, protests and communications targeting politicians already in office so they hear their constituents clearly and act accordingly as our representative. In spite of being ignored by the media, we are rapidly growing in numbers and strength. If you are concerned about the direction your government is taking, it's time for you to speak out. In the words of Thomas Jefferson, "We in America do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate.”
