A Man On a Mission … Ron Coleman


“Dad, you really can’t afford to do this,” his daughter sometimes tells him.

“I cannot afford not to,” Ron Coleman replies. He stresses that he simply can’t stay on the sidelines. “It’s extremely overwhelming,” he told The Epoch Times. “I’ll be honest with you, I lay down in my bunk at night—I cry for an hour.”

As has become my tradition on Sundays, I try to honor individuals who demonstrate fortitude and courage. This week that individual is Ron Coleman, a trucker, who is part of the People’s Convoy. He lives in Reno and started out in the convoy of truckers in Adelanto, Ca. While driving across the nation, he met many many supportive people. The article in the Epoch Times about Mr. Coleman describes individual encounters in Lipton, Arizona, Big Cabin, Oklahoma! and Cuba, Missouri as he drove across the U.S.

“You can’t let the people down, because the number of people we came across was enormous.” Coleman said that the truckers estimated that they had probably seen a million people massed on highway overpasses along their route.

“On a personal scale, I have a victory. I’m not letting those people down—those I met with.”

At present the convoy is in Hagerstown, Maryland, but do not expect to read about the People’s Convoy in your local newspaper. Coleman isn’t concerned about the number of trucks dwindling over time. There’s a static number, and there’s a floating number, including the trucks and cars that join on a short-term basis.

“Many people worry that this is going to fizzle, and it may fizzle to a point,” he told The Epoch Times. “But even with 20 trucks, we still can make a point.”

“I’m bringing people up to speed and letting them know that our Constitution is suspended because of the Emergency Powers Act,” he said.

On March 3, the Senate approved legislation to declare an end to the emergency, but the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives isn’t expected to take up the measures. The White House said on the same day that the bill would be vetoed if the House were to approve it.

Coleman’s objective is to push the House to approve the measure, even if Biden vetoes it. “We’ve met our goal because we’ve just exposed a tyrant,” he said.

Coleman says he recently started a fundraising site, hoping for help to cover his mortgage. “I’m in this to win. If I can supplement and pay my bills, I’m going to stay here until this is over.”
