WTP Congress Leadership Change

Schulz to Speak in California Next Week

The We the People Congress today announced the acceptance of the resignation of Devvy Kidd as the National Director of the WTP Congress. Kidd had been functioning in her role for the Congress since June of last year. Bob Schulz, Chairman of the Congress, stated that the organization will miss the contributions that she has made, but that the Congress's mission will continue unabated.

To that end, Schulz is taking the opportunity created by Kidd's departure to review the management requirements, organizational structure and operational plans of the Congress. He is holding ongoing discussions with individuals regarding the transition of the primary leadership responsibilities as well as reviewing potential changes to the Congress's management strategies with the intent of substantially increasing the growth rate of the Congress's membership base and escalating the effectiveness of the organization toward its stated mission.

The WTP Congress is the “grassroots activism” arm of the WTP organization and is organized as a 501(c)4 not-for-profit corporation. The long term vision for the Congress is to “institutionalize” citizen vigilance over government at all levels and restore Constitutional Order to our Republic. It is a membership based group with thousands of members and hundreds of local coordinators across all fifty states.

During Kidd's tenure as National Director, the Congress deployed its nationwide, Internet-based system of local information pages and tackled the process of “organizing the organization” by giving the WTP coordinators across the country a dedicated on-line Resource Center featuring Coordinator related guidelines, procedures and documents. Earlier, Ms. Kidd had helped manage WTP's "Freedom Drive 2002", the across-the-nation drive to the nation's Capitol to demand government responses to the Petitions for Redress of Grievances.  

Most recently, Kidd helped organize the WTP Give Me Liberty 2004 conference which was held in Arlington, Virginia in January. The conference revolved around the Right to Petition and its exercise to correct the abuses of our Constitution. The conference featured nationally renowned speakers including Alan Keyes, Joseph Sobran, Bay Buchanan, Aaron Russo, Joseph Farah, Hutton Gibson, etc. The conference panels highlighted the Right to Petition, gun Rights, the “Federal” Reserve, the media and the income tax fraud.

Video copies of the historic conference will be available soon on CD-ROM and VHS. The video products are currently in “post-production” and the CD-ROM version should ship beginning in mid-March. WTP will make a separate announcement within the coming week when we are staged to begin taking orders.
