RATIONALE: DC Strategists currently has 9 Libertarian Party affiliates

chapters and the national party. In addition to Idaho, they already have
<br>
support from 4 Congressmembers, Project Veritas, Attorney General Ken
<br>
Paxton, Young Americans for Liberty, and many others. They are looking
<br>
for LP Illinois to join them with the goal of uniting all 51 entities to
<br>
say yes.
