If you are into independent politics and don’t know Eric Bronner, you should.

A former veteran, Eric Bronner is one of the 60% of veterans that don’t belong to either major political party. Eric jumped into the nonpartisan reform movement 5 years ago after listening to a podcast on Freakonomics with Katherine Gehl.

In just 5 years, the organization he formed, Veterans for All Voters, has grown to more than 7,000 members and been a part of some of the most impactful nonpartisan reform efforts in the country.

Now, they’re launching an ambitious national project to engage voters across the country to revisit their oath to their county.
