Why join a voting-block

As billionaires take the candidates out to "lunch" and corporate lobbyists spend millions of dollars to influence politicians, it is clear our individual votes are out powered.

Ideas Move Society has formed a Los Angeles based, non-partisan voting block as an empowered response to today's political situation.

At the end of the day, politicians are still beholden to voters and are very sensitive to the requests of a unified front of constituents. The voter block serves as an important counter-balance to lobbyists and the economic power elite.

What the block does
We notify politicians and candidates that the Ideas Move Society block will support those who will balance the CA budget and begin unwinding the government's interference in the economy and we will oppose politician who supports irresponsible fiscal policies and an increase in the power of government.

We will track politicians voting records and hold them accountable at the subsequent elections.

Why did this block start
When I found out that the most recent LA city council member was elected with only 9,000 votes. In a close race, a voting block of just 400 people would have decided the election! That is tremendous power, power that is better in the hands of tax paying citizens rather than a few corporate lobbyists.
