The Alliance for Civil Society and Accountability exists because it has become obvious that the definition of civics has died in this country.
What is civics? – Civics is the study of the rights and obligations of citizens in society. Why is this important? Because we, as citizens of the Unites States of America, do in fact have, rights AND obligations as part of our very citizenship. As it states in the Constitution, it is our job to hold those in power to account for their actions and to keep the government in check.
We are not slaves to our government but are protected by the Constitution and all other State and Federal laws. This does not appear to be the case if you ask many of our citizens. They will tell you that WE THE PEOPLE are powerless because the system has gotten too large to change. This is EXACTLY why we are in the place we are in our Democratic Republic.
We aim to change that belief and to help bring accountability and the return of civil society through civic engagement and education. Our country was designed to be controlled from the bottom up, not the top down. The system will tell you that they are here for our benefit and protection and that is the biggest lie around.
For decades, society has been indoctrinated with the idea that government was something that you voted people into (then promptly forgot about) and the law was something you hoped to never have to tangle with. In reality, the government is something that has abandoned us and the law has been weaponized to drain your savings without providing proper resolutions to your legal needs. For this very reason, ACSA Idaho works to empower individuals and communities, providing them with the tools and resources needed to actively participate in the democratic process, which is far more than checking a box on a ballot.
