Tracking the States of the Union: An Ongoing Outreach Effort

Back in 2023, PKTF launched an ambitious national outreach initiative: to locate, verify, and document the official websites of all American States of the Union.

This was among our earliest public efforts under the PKTF - Assembly Liaison Initiative, established in the spring of 2024.

At that time the first mission was simple, but important - ensure that every State Assembly’s public presence was visible, accessible, and accurate.





Today, that effort continues. You can see our current progress by visiting PKTFNews.org/states on a desktop or laptop computer. Once on the site, click the “States” button to open an interactive map displaying all known State of the Union websites.

  • States shaded green show those with a last confirmed and functioning website.
  • States in light blue silhouettes mark those where a known website either hasn’t been published or has not yet been identified.

Our Information Technology team updates the map as new information becomes available, but we still need your help. Some previously verified State websites have gone offline or changed their domain since early 2024.

If you’re from one of these States - or know of a current, active website for a State Assembly that isn’t yet listed - please share the web address in the comments section below this post. Your contribution helps us keep the national picture complete and current.


Why does this matter?

Each verified State website serves as an official communication hub for its Assembly—in effect, confirming that the de jure State of the Union Assembly is in regular session. These sites provide the public with access to meeting schedules, minutes from past sessions, and updates from various service and sub-function committees.

By helping us identify and confirm up-to-date websites, you’re playing a direct role in supporting transparency, continuity, and communication within our network of States of the Union.

Our outreach effort is ongoing, and your input makes a difference.

Visit the map, check your State, and - if you notice a missing or outdated link - share what you know.

Small pieces of information, when shared, help keep the larger picture connected.

Update on Website Status and Expert Involvement

Continuing to make site improvements, thanks to all your valued feedback and constructive opinions!

We are pleased to inform all readers that the website referenced in the previous article has continued to operate without requiring significant updates for the past week, following a major phase of backend and visual improvements. This latest progression reflects several weeks of dedicated technical refinement and sustained collaboration among our newly established American technology experts, ensuring greater stability, efficiency, and visual clarity across all Peacekeeping Task Force (PKTF) digital properties.

 

Both PKTF sites are Back Up — and Growing according to their readers and viewers' interest and relevant expectations.

 

The Brand-New Procurement Landing Site

through the

PeaceBridgeNetwork

 

The PKTF has undertaken substantial platform growth through its partnership with a small but elite technology crew specializing in website architecture and reinforcement of wireframe frameworks. These experts have been working continuously to enhance usability and infrastructure resilience in ways that strengthen long-term digital performance across all peacekeeping and peacebuilding websites under the PKTF umbrella.

 

***Please note:

The FAQ and other sections, such as Annual Customer Comparison to Industry Standard Equipment, as well as where to leave your own Customer Review, with other nifty features as needed, are still being updated to the site in the coming days and weeks, so please continue to be patient as these and other ongoing updates are being installed. 

 

Over the past 6–8 weeks, our web platforms have undergone intermittent construction periods that occasionally required temporary offline status. However, despite multiple rounds of maintenance, the sites — including https://apcpeacekeepingcoms.online/ — remained accessible for the overwhelming majority of the time, ensuring our community could remain informed and connected during the transition. We extend our sincerest apologies for any delays or temporary communication disruptions experienced during this process. These were essential steps in a major and necessary upgrade.

Expanded Equipment and Procurement Updates

We are excited to announce major new additions to our online inventory. The https://apcpeacekeepingcoms.online/ site now features updated and expanded listings of equipment available for procurement — items that support local and State of the Union–level peacekeeping and defense initiatives, as well as community-based security coordination.

Among these updates, the D10 radios play a central role. The site is being upgraded to feature detailed product comparisons, specifications, and operational guidance that will help all users — from PKTF Assembly Liaisons to general community watch participants — make more informed choices as new devices and accessories are introduced.

Additionally, items tailored for PKTF Assembly Liaisons have been added, including attire, identification, and credentials required for active roles both in the field and in office settings. These items have been long anticipated, and the new distribution system now makes it easier than ever for Liaisons and community personnel to order directly from a secure web-based platform.

Integrated Access Between PKTF Sites

We are also pleased to announce the integration of resource and procurement information between the main PKTF equipment site and our news and updates portal at https://pktfnews.org/. Visitors reviewing liaison-related articles or equipment notices on the PKTF News page — particularly under the Liaison Attire and Equipment section — can now seamlessly transition to the https://apcpeacekeepingcoms.online/ site to review full product details and complete secure purchases. This cross-platform update was designed to create smoother navigation for all users and unify communication across both domains.

Our Shared Progress — Thanks to You

These efforts and achievements have been made possible through the continued feedback and encouragement of our readers, followers, and field Liaisons. Many of the most vital improvements to both PKTF sites originated from your comments and experiences. Your observations were instrumental in helping our team recognize needed updates and adjust accordingly.

As we continue refining, modernizing, and expanding our online network, please know your patience and participation remain the driving force behind our progress. Each enhancement introduced is guided by your feedback and aligned with the PKTF mission to keep essential tools, news, and resources reliable, secure, and accessible for all who serve and support peacekeeping initiatives across the States and beyond.

Thank you — sincerely — to everyone who has navigated these updates with us. Our shared success reflects your continuing commitment to the mission and the strength of our growing digital community.

Have a wonderful day, and enjoy exploring the updated https://apcpeacekeepingcoms.online/ experience!

Some Common Housekeeping to the PeaceBridgeNetwork

 


Just a quick update:

Regarding D10 Radio customer procurement and other inventory upgrades:

Our team over at the PeaceBridgeNetwork website is making some positive changes to the site exposure.


We wanted to pop in this weekend to provide our readers with information about any and all site enhancements, changes, upgrades, and any additions being provided to its web presence.


Our site engineers are currently migrating the site to a more centric URL catering to the needs of the PeaceBridgeNetwork in its totality.

What that means is, the PeaceBridgeNetwork is now branching out to areas that cater to a more user-friendly site environment where the procurement of service items and inventory can be obtained, such as Strategy Outreach Items, shirts, hats, coffee mugs, desk office items, service information office cards, office namplates for Liaisons, service organization flags, lapel pins, Common Access Badge credential card service overlays, etc. And, of course, easier access to inventory of our D10 Emergency Radio units.  







In the meantime, if you are aware of, and are interested in procuring any of the above inventory items and more, please feel free to visit our pktfnews.org site from the Homepage. Currently, from the Homepage, you will find a quick list of items also available through our Cashapp and Revolut links.

Items such as Common Access Badges for Assembly Liaisons, Peacekeeping Task Force Flags of various sizes, and service information cards (aka business cards) are also available.

Our team is working diligently on getting the main website back up and operating very soon.

Thank you all for your patience.


For any immediate questions about site upgrades, or any other information about the PeaceBridgeNetwork Community Workspace infrastructure, please do not hesitate to email our technical office @ < peacebridgenetwork@proton.me >

We would like to thank all our readers, viewers, emergency radio owners and operators, and every single one of our peacekeepers and peacebuilders currently on the PeaceBridgeNetwork working together harmoniously to finally bring lasting peace to the Land and Soil, as well as to the Sea and Air jurisdictions wherever those boundaries meet.
