Restore America was founded in 1999 by a small group of concerned Christians in Oregon whose long term vision is to mobilize millions of bible believing, voter eligible Christians in America to REGISTER and VOTE in every election. The reason?
Over the last several decades millions of evangelical Christians, out of apathy, ignorance, or indifference, chose not to vote in election after election. That fact alone has contributed greatly to the moral, spiritual, and political disintegration of America.
Of the 52 million voter eligible Christians in America, 10 million were not register to VOTE for the 2006 Election, and over 20 million who were registered, did not VOTE.
We Christians are commanded by Christ Himself to be ‘salt and light’ to the culture in which we live, and Voting is an important aspect of that duty.
Calvin Coolidge, Thirtieth President of the United States said,
"If the people fail to vote, a government will be developed which is not their government... The whole system of American Government rests on the ballot box. Unless citizens perform their duties there, such a system of government is doomed to failure."Our Vision
The Restoration and Preservation of America as a nation "Under God."
"Where there is no vision, the people perish."
Proverbs 29:18
