As part of America at 250 – A Beacon for the AI Age, we propose America Civic Voice (ACV)—a national civic writing and listening network designed to protect free expression with responsibility and transform citizens’ lived experience into policy-relevant signals. As a civic companion to AIWS Government 24/7, ACV provides a constructive channel for testimony, community reports, solution sketches, and evidence—then synthesizes that input into explainable briefs, early warnings, and priority maps for leaders and institutions. ACV is built with constitutional safeguards, transparent standards, and an appeals process to prevent doxxing, incitement, manipulation, and dehumanization. It restores trust by closing the loop: “We heard you → Here’s what changed.” Integrated with large-scale deliberation approaches associated with MIT Professor Alex “Sandy” Pentland (BGF Board Member), ACV strengthens public reasoning—surfacing common ground, clarifying tradeoffs, and accelerating meaningful governance outcomes—so that America’s 250th anniversary becomes a launchpad for democratic renewal in the AI Age.
