American Democracy is Powered by Telling the Truth.

The Democratic Process has always relied on the conceit that voters and leaders will be more capable of making just decisions for the country and their communities when they can access objective facts.

Lies Are Easy and Profitable

Everyone Has a Role in Telling the Truth

Just telling the truth is not enough. Calling out bad-faith arguments and fabrications persistently is a duty of every citizen. We are all in this together.

Truth Telling Public Actions

CT4 has engaged in recent peaceful speech projects on the streets of Washington DC to promote truth telling. More is on the way.

Leadership

The Truth is a big idea and there is much more we have to say about it. We intend to create accessible communications content in various forms to spread the word.

Community

It has been said that no one has a monopoly on the truth. Commitment to the truth is a social activity. CT4 will connect with people offering good-faith critique, ideas, and support to build a community of truth tellers.
