Grassroots America: We the People is a conservative grassroots organization and Political Action Committee striving to unite, educate and empower citizens to get involved in the American political process. Instituted in 2009 in Smith County, Grassroots America has not only become a major political force in East Texas, but has also garnered statewide influence due to its legislative work. Grassroots America's mission is to organize, educate, and inform citizens about public policy and to support the election of candidates who share the core values of protection and advancement of God-given liberties guaranteed by the US Constitution, fiscal responsibility, constitutionally limited government, free markets (not corporate welfare), personal responsibility, the rule of law, and national and state sovereignty.
