Committee Chair: Karen Foote

Karen’s path to The Missouri Assembly began long before the world changed in 2020. Always involved in business, Karen made a career change in 1997 and became a 7-12 biology/science educator and later received a masters degree in administration. She then found herself questioning the traditional structures of governance and the influence of global interests. What started as a curious observation of political dynamics eventually evolved into a deep, research-driven quest for truth.

Why Should I Step Forward with Missourians?

Across American history, free people have understood a simple truth:

Liberty does not maintain itself. It must be claimed, practiced, and protected by those who understand their role within it.

The Missouri Assembly exists to restore that understanding.

At its heart, the Assembly is a lawful gathering of people who choose to stand on the land and soil of Missouri as self-governing Americans — not as subjects, dependents, or corporate abstractions, but as living men and women exercising their birthright of self-determination. This is not about protest or politics. It is about responsibility, continuity, and lawful self-governance. Self-governance begins with the 1779 Declaration.

The 1779 Declaration affirms:

  • That you are a living man or woman, not a legal fiction or corporate entity

  • That you choose to stand under the common law and the unalienable rights recognized at the founding of this country

  • That you reclaim your political standing as one of the people — not merely a subject of administrative systems

This declaration does not grant rights; it records your status and places it on the public record within a lawful assembly of your peers.

Why Should I Take My Place in The Missouri Assembly?

1. To Restore Lawful Self-Governance
The Assembly exists so that Missourians can once again lawfully assemble, deliberate, and act in the public interest — just as communities did before government became distant and impersonal.

2. To Preserve Due Process and Peaceful Resolution
Through education, mediation, and structured processes, the Assembly provides a lawful forum to resolve disputes, protect rights, and address grievances without coercion or chaos.

3. To Rebuild Community and Accountability
Self-governance only works when people know one another, uphold standards of conduct, and take responsibility for the well-being of their neighbors. The Assembly restores this missing civic fabric.

4. To Leave a Clear Record for Future Generations
By recording your declaration and participating openly, you create a documented lineage of lawful self-governance—an inheritance of clarity rather than confusion for your children and grandchildren.

5. To Stand in Peace, Not Protest
This is not a movement of anger or opposition. It is an act of maturity. A declaration that you choose lawful order over disorder, responsibility over dependency, and cooperation over conflict.

A Call to Quiet Courage

The Missouri Assembly is not about overthrowing anything. It is about remembering who we are and acting accordingly.

If you believe that freedom begins with responsibility;
that law should serve the people rather than rule them;
and that the future is shaped by those willing to stand calmly and lawfully in the present—

Then we invite you to learn more, record your declaration, and take your place among your neighbors in The Missouri Assembly.

Liberty endures when ordinary people choose to live it.
