But What is Real Clout?

Real Clout is about real people having a real impact on the public policies in democratic country. To paraphrase the late Tip O'Neill, Speaker of the House of Representatives, all policy debates are local, and we believe every policy debate should include the active participation of those most invested and involved on the local level - affected constituents and community leaders.
