About Us

Our Local Now is a community that believes the United States has a unique role in the world as a beacon of democracy. Furthermore, we believe the motto of the United States, e pluribus unum, out of many one, is first accomplished at the local level. Our Local Now is launching in Ventura County with the goal of expanding to other areas. We seek first to understand by sorting out, in order: 

1.  What local issues have the greatest effect on the most people?
2. What are the pros and cons of the solutions to the issues? We understand that for most of these issues, compromise will be necessary to find the solution that is best for most.
3. How can we become engaged in our communities to work to enact the solutions to the issues with the greatest local effect?
