Wes, below is what you could forward to your state chairs and board 
members, as a grassroots opportunity that would welcome LPers.  As a 
501c4 we can't support parties or candidates, but we can work with both 
to improve policy, whether ballot access laws or laws governing 
overspending, overreglation, overtaxation, overcriminalization, etc.  We 
also have openings with our 50 state affiliates for LPers who want to 
broaden their skillset with grassroots organizing. Such organizing will 
expose them to new groups, thus indirectly helping their LP plans later.

*P.S.* Honorary Chairman Gary Johnson has had recently many appearances 
in the media <https://ouramericainitiative.com/news.html>; he has been 
joined on the Advisory Board by Whole Foods founder John Mackey and 
Congressman Barry Goldwater, Jr. 
<http://www.examiner.com/article/goldwater-roemer-mackey-join-gary-johnson-to-expand-freedom-america>; 
and 100 high-profile, national experts have joined our Advisory Councils 
<https://ouramericainitiative.com/advisory-councils.html> and now are 
posting at LiveFreeBlog <http://www.livefreeblog.com/>.

*P.P.S. *Support our national projects 
<https://www.ouramericainitiative.com/national-projects.html> to end 
warrantless NSA spying, abolish the IRS, repeal marijuana prohibition, 
and require debates to include all viable candidates.  More of our 50 
state affiliates 
<https://www.ouramericainitiative.com/state-projects.html> are ramping 
up their own projects - find your state and help us restore liberty!

*P.P.P.S.* Please consider a recurring donation 
<https://ouramericainitiative.com/donate.html> and check out the 
privileges for membership in our donor clubs

    OUR AMERICA INITIATIVE ANNOUNCES STATE “LOBBY DAYS”
    Activists Across the Country Will Advocate Liberty Priorities in
    State Capitals
    January 13, 2015, Salt Lake City, UT -- With legislatures in dozens
    of states gearing up for their 2015 sessions, the Our America
    Initiative has announced that members of the organization across the
    country will conduct “lobby days” in their respective states to make
    legislators aware of the concerns and priorities of liberty advocates.
    The Our America Initiative, led by Honorary Chairman Gov. Gary
    Johnson, is a national advocacy group that focuses on protecting
    civil liberties, reducing the size and cost of government and
    promoting economic freedom.
    Announcing the state-level efforts, Our America senior advisor Ron
    Nielson said, “The fight for greater individual freedom and less
    government is not just a federal one. Across the nation, state and
    local governments are taking actions and making decisions every day
    that impact liberty. As these decisions are made, it is essential
    that policy-makers hear from those who believe in reducing the role
    of government in our everyday lives.
    “As state legislatures begin their work for 2015, supporters of the
    Our America Initiative are organizing to provide that voice for
    liberty.”
    Our America’s legislative priorities in each state will be targeted
    toward efforts to reduce taxes, eliminate unnecessary regulation,
    and reverse trends toward over-criminalization and militarization of
    law enforcement. Protection and restoration of civil liberties,
    greater choices in education and health care, and increased
    transparency in government are likewise on the agenda in state
    capitals across the country.
    Advocacy efforts are already under way in numerous states, ranging
    from tax reform in Georgia to opposing Common Core in numerous
    states to judicial reform in Louisiana. Other issues include
    opposing the use of federal drug task force grants to militarize
    local law enforcement and resisting the over-regulation of Uber and
    other entrepreneurial transportation networks.
    More information regarding specific states and issues can be found
    at Our America in the States
