An Affirmation of Life & Liberty
Life & Liberty Positions Adopted June 27, 2020
Life and Liberty Caucus core principles are founded upon a strict adherence to the
original intent of America's founding documents: U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights and
the Declaration of Independence.
Our caucus is constitutionally-centered, upholding the rule of law and due process
under the law. No one is above the law! We advocate for the return to equal justice for
all, true freedom for the American people, accountability and transparency from our
public servants and an informed and civically-involved citizenry.
Recognizing the lack of a viable political home and witnessing the growing
number of the disenfranchised, the need to build a real option became paramount.
We realized the need to establish a serious vehicle that would fill the void for
activists who currently identify as: pro-life Libertarians, isolated liberty-loving
Independents and faith-based Constitutionists who share no intention of establishing
an unconstitutional theocracy.
We have proposed the following positions on the key issues of our time:
-Right to Life
In accordance with the intent of the Declaration of Independence, we fully support the
right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. This includes the right to life from
conception to a natural death.
Due to the current lack of equal justice for all, we oppose the use of capitol punishment.
We oppose euthanasia as an unethical and immoral act.
All people should have the right to choose whether or not to be resuscitated or to be kept alive on artificial means.
-Right to Keep & Bear Arms
The natural right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. All gun
control measures are unconstitutional and therefore, unlawful.
-Healthcare Freedom
We believe in the freedom to choose or refuse what goes into one's body.
Everyone shall have the right to seek alternative medicines and treatments.
No medical procedure or intervention shall be forced against an individual's will, such as forced vaccinations or specific medical treatments. Patients have the right to full
disclosure of known risks verses benefits in order to truly give informed consent.
Patients have the right to know specific costs prior to receiving treatment, so they can
shop prices like any other product or services.
-Foreign Policy
We believe, as did our founders, in fair trade with all nations but entangling alliances
with none. We support bringing our troops home from all foreign nations. Our military
should be used in defense of the American people in the event of a direct, verifiable and actual imminent threat to our nation's people. All wars must be declared by
Congress, per the U.S. Constitution.
-Free and Fair Elections
We are committed to the return of free and fair elections.
There must be transparency in the counting of our votes. We must prohibit the use of all private entities in supplying secretive/proprietary software, hardware and in the printing of American ballots. Voters must be able to witness the actual tallying of their votes. We strongly advocate for the return to local precinct hand counts in public view of voters. Vote count totals and tallies must be displayed at local precincts prior to ballot boxes ever being removed from public view which would include any removal from a room and/or building.
We advocate the exploration of new voting technologies if they can guarantee full transparency and security such as possibly block-chain technology.
We believe in equal and reasonable access to vote for all American citizens without
exception. ALL American citizens have the fundamental right to vote, therefore,
reasonable and realistic accommodations must be made.
We advocate for free and fair ballot access for all political parties, candidates and ballot issues.
Media outlets must demonstrate free and fair treatment of candidates, regardless of
political affiliation. This shall include fair and reasonable inclusion in debates and other
public events.
-Border Security & Protection of Sovereignty
All nations have the right and duty to protect their borders.
We must withdraw from the United Nations and any other global authorities.
We The People are only represented and governed by our own duly-elected representatives who are subject to our continued consent.
-Real and Personal Property Rights
Government exists to protect personal property rights, not to infringe upon them. This
would preclude the illegal seizure of land, wages, resources and personal effects.
-States' Lands
There must be a return of individual state's lands from unconstitutional seizure by the
federal government. The land and resources rightfully belong to the citizens of each
state.
-War on Drugs
The unconstitutional War on Drugs has given an excuse to all levels of government for
many violations of our civil liberties. This would include violations of the 4th
Amendment (unlawful search & seizure), civil asset forfeiture laws which incentivize
law enforcement corruption, and a general usurpation of sovereignty over each one's own body.
