Civil Society Field Hearings: Share Your Testimony
In times of constitutional challenge, political leaders and everyday citizens must affirm and strengthen the institutions that make democratic governance possible. Our Founders designed the U.S. House of Representatives to connect ordinary citizens to federal power. It is our most all-embracing governing institution, and its role as a check on the executive branch is essential to upholding the rule of law, our way of life, and our democracy.

Civil Society Field Hearings create multiple avenues for impact

  • Documented Record: Testimony becomes part of a preserved public record
  • Community Solidarity: Participants build relationships and collective purpose
  • Institutional Reform: Modeling how Congress should function through citizen initiative
  • Public Education: Increase understanding of constitutional principles and congressional role
  • Media Engagement: Create opportunities to amplify democracy’s values
  • Representative Accountability: Provide a structured forum for constituents to voice concerns
  • Defining a Democratic Republic: Establish modern norms in the digital era

This form is an extension of the Civil Society Field Hearings playbook. We have created this platform to serve as an easy way to submit witness testimony. Testimony shared here will be sent to your Congressional representatives to continue the important dialogue that you have started by hosting a field hearing. You will also have the option to anonymously share your testimony with the Impact Map, a nonpartisan effort to help share everyday stories of impact. (https://theimpactproject.org) 

Please only share what you are comfortable with. 

Thank you for sharing your testimony and actively participating in our democratic process.
