How to Change a Law: The Intelligent Consumer's 7-Step Guide - Improve Your Community, Influence Your Country, And Impact The World is a simple, do-it-yourself manual for voters, small business owners, and policy advocates who want to take political action, influence leaders and change laws. This book is for you if you ever wanted to change a law, thought a law was unfair or unjust, or just felt confused by bureaucracy. It provides a better understanding of policy change and political persuasion (also known as lobbying, a long-term solution to political frustration, apathy, and boredom). Once you understand the power of lobbying, you will be able to improve your community, influence leaders, and impact the world.
You'll learn how to change policy through a process that is simple, accessible and affordable, not by voting for politicians. We're not talking about getting people elected to office, but rather helping our elected leaders find solutions to problems that affect all of us, issues like student debt, gun violence, immigration, cyber security, privacy, ISIS, energy independence, healthcare, taxes, and so on. Collectively, we can take control of our shared political destiny.
The world is changing, and we need a way for average citizens to come together around issues, build coalitions, fund their initiatives, and intelligently pursue their agenda. We need a platform that is affordable, independent, unbiased, nonpartisan, and issue-agnostic so everyone can participate in it. That's where the Political Persuasion Platform(TM) and the iLobby solution comes in, by empowering individuals to change laws through crowd funded lobbying.
iLobby is a radical new approach that gives people an opportunity to get involved and take immediate action.

• Voters will be able to join the debate to propose a new law or change an existing one.
• Small business owners will gain more control over the issues that directly impact them, ultimately saving time and money.
• Lobbyists will be able to accelerate the pace of changing laws.
• Politicians will gain valuable feedback from their constituents.

We are at a turning point in our politics; everyone needs to get involved, and this book is your roadmap. Using the groundbreaking iLobby platform and the 7-step guide, you will learn how to craft your message, build a coalition and move your issue forward. You'll learn to vote on issues, not just for candidates.
Thibault has made this journey simple, but that doesn't mean it will be easy. If you are willing to go on the journey, How To Change A Law is your roadmap to becoming a "Citizen Legislator," someone who will speak up and advocate for rational solutions and help make the world a better place for all of us. To help you get started immediately, Thibault starts each chapter with a specific action step to take right now.
