Since its inception more than 50 years ago, The John Birch Society has always been right in the middle of all of the important political battles.

Most Americans undoubtedly agree that the federal government cannot continue on its current spending and borrowing binge without wreaking economic havoc. But how must the binge be brought under control? One idea that has just gotten traction in the state of North Dakota is for the states to call for a constitutional convention for the purpose of proposing a National Debt Relief Amendment (NDRA) to the U.S. Constitution.

On March 15, Congressman Ron Paul (R-Texas) introduced and sponsored bill H.R. 1094 — the Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act, which calls for the complete abolition of the Federal Reserve System and the Federal Reserve banks, and for the repeal of the Federal Reserve Act of 1913.
