Wins Achieved Through Issuing Notices to Government Officials

Issuing formal notices to government officials has proven to be a powerful tool for holding public servants accountable and educating both the public and officials about lawful obligations. These notices often lead to significant changes without further legal action, demonstrating the effectiveness of this approach. Here are some notable successes:

1. Maricopa County, AZ Audit:

   • A unique audit was conducted in Maricopa County, the only one of its kind in the nation, as a direct result of this notice process by David Jose. Only 127 notices were necessary to initiate this audit.

2. Massachusetts Legislative Session:

   • The Boston Globe reported that the Massachusetts legislature had the least productive session in decades. This shift occurred after a concentrated effort began, involving mass notices sent to legislators over nine months.

3. Defeat of Unconstitutional Bills:

   • In California, a bill infringing on the Second Amendment was defeated with under 120 notices.
   • In Washington State, a bill that would have labeled those exercising their right to instruct as Violent Domestic Extremists was stopped with fewer than 100 notices.

4. Massachusetts Health and Safety Legislation:

   • Multiple health-related bills, including stringent mask and vaccine mandates, were effectively opposed through formal notices. This effort also delayed or prevented stringent gun legislation in the state.
   • Additionally, notices compelled the Massachusetts Governor to address concerns regarding unlawful state intrusion.

5. National Impact and Supreme Court Decisions:

   • The Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms (ATF) agency has been undermined, and the Supreme Court has seen a significant change in direction due to a series of formal notices also by Team Jose.
   • Notable Supreme Court rulings influenced by these notices include unanimous decisions confirming that government agents are not shielded from lawsuits and do not possess sovereign immunity.
   • The anticipated landmark ruling in SEC v. Jarkesy could challenge the use of administrative tribunals, restoring individuals’ rights to jury trials and due process.

6. Broad Legislative Impact:

   • Legislators nationwide, including Representative Thomas Massie, Leah Cushman from New Hampshire, and the Indiana Board of Commissioners, have received and acted upon these notices, leading to tangible changes.

Effectiveness and Educational Value

These notices not only correct governmental overreach and corruption but also serve an educational purpose. They inform both the public and officials about their legal responsibilities and rights. In most cases (approximately 90%), the notice itself is sufficient to bring about change. When further action is required, the affidavit process has led to over 10,000 documented successes, underscoring the robustness and effectiveness of this approach.
