Create A U.S. Department of Peace - Join the Peace Alliance


Congressman John Conyers meets with a group of MI activists
at our recent conference in D.C.and gets them pumped up!



Participate in an historic citizen lobbying effort to create a U.S. Department of Peace. There is currently a bill before the U.S. House of Representatives (HR 808). This landmark measure will augment our current problem-solving options, providing practical, nonviolent solutions to the problems of domestic and international conflict.

Domestically, the Department of Peace will develop policies and allocate resources to effectively reduce the levels of domestic and gang violence, child abuse, and various other forms of societal discord. Internationally, the Department will advise the President and Congress on the most sophisticated ideas and techniques regarding peace-creation among nations.

2. That's right. It's a beautiful legacy from a man of vision.

Maybe it's time has finally come. Acting on it with intention is a big step toward manifestation - not only a new reality in government, but a broader reality and way of Being in the global family in a positive and constructive way.

I know several Texas Republicans that have joined! They said they were FED UP with endless war and a violent society and the greed that encouraged it. So it's a place for all those within the political spectrum to come together.
