Did you know that by Congressional mandate, “Each educational institution that receives Federal funds for a fiscal year shall hold an educational program on the United States Constitution on September 17 of such year for the students served by the educational institution.” Remind your school of this Congressional mandate.

The greatest honor in my mother’s life was that President Ronald Reagan appointed her as a Commissioner on the Bicentennial of the United States Constitution. She served with Chief Justice Warren Burger and Teddy Kennedy and made friends with both men. As a result of her work, she published her video teaching tool on the Constitution, “We the People.” You can watch it here.

I used my mother’s source materials to write a new book for a new generation of Americans. You can learn more about the book here.

It’s OUR Constitution. Let’s know it and use it. With this document, Americans have rights that are not available in the rest of the world. Yes, America is an exceptional country. - Anne Schlafly
