“AI” INITIATIVES

Mandatory Agricultural Education & Home Economics for All Schools

America was founded on an understanding that agriculture sustains freedom. The early American farmer was not driven to feed the world but to feed and support a self-reliant local economy—an economy rooted in independence, stewardship, and faith.


Agrarian principles mirror Godly values found in nature—patience, common sense, resilience, and renewal. Following nature’s calendar teaches reverence for life and respect for the land that sustains it.

Requiring Agricultural Education and Home Economics in every public and private voucher-funded school is an investment in America’s future. It cultivates stewardship, civic responsibility, and practical wisdom in young people—ensuring they grow up with the knowledge and respect to care for the land, their communities, and one another for generations to come.

Citizen “Watch dog” groups or Civic Leagues keep Governments accountable to preserving what’s important to a community. Protecting resources that include vital environmental and historic assets such as creeks and rivers, tree canopies, barns, viewsheds, historic cemeteries and other cultural places of interest always starts with a few concerned citizens organizing and uniting for a cause. 

LOCAL LAWS AND ORDINANCES SHAPE YOUR COMMUNITIES DESTINY-UNDERSTANDING THEM GIVES YOU A VOICE
