Issues

Religious Liberty

America was founded on the principles of religious liberty.  We do not believe individuals should have to set aside their deeply held religious beliefs to hold elected office or operate their small business.  As a nation, we need to protect the individual liberties and freedoms that made our country great.  We support religious exemptions from vaccinations and defer to parents to make health decisions for their children.

Abortion

We believe every child is special, was created by God in His image, and deserves to have a chance at life. We celebrate the recent Dobbs decision by the Supreme Court and support only pro-life candidates.

Transgender Sports/Transgender Bathrooms

This issue is not complicated.  Boys should compete with boys, and girls should compete with girls.  Girls should also be free to use the female bathroom at school without fear that a transgender boy will share it with them. The mere fact that we’re even making a policy statement describing our stance on these issues is illustrative of how much the public school system has changed in recent years.

Securing the Border

We support Donald Trump’s plan to build a wall along the southern border.  Millions of illegals are flooding over our border and overwhelming border towns and large cities in America.

Protecting Children from Woke Policies

We support the elimination of divisive concepts from our curriculum that push woke policies like transgenderism, critical race theory, and socialism.  Instead, we should return curriculum control to parents and local teachers. Whatever your political affiliation, we can all agree that school is not the proper place for discussions on issues like these to take place, and that oftentimes these discussions are not age appropriate.

2nd Amendment Gun Rights

We are opposed to any law that restricts the purchase of guns, accessories, or ammunition to law-abiding citizens of legal age. Additionally, we support Constitutional Carry legislation at the state level which removed the requirement for a concealed weapons permit to carry a pistol concealed on your person or in your car.  This is a blatant and clear violation of the 2nd Amendment that states, “…the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.”  Citizens should never have to pay a fee or get a license to exercise a Constitutional right!

We also oppose unconstitutional so-called “red flag” laws. 

Deficit Spending

We oppose continued deficit spending in Washington, D.C. that is adding $1 trillion to our national debt each quarter.  This is unsustainable and leads to inflation.  It is a transfer of wealth to us from our own grandchildren, as we continually spend more than we collect in tax revenue.  Federal spending needs to be slashed, a balanced budget amendment needs to be passed, and America needs to stop spending money we don’t have.

Medical Freedom

We support the right of parents to make health decisions for their children.  Government overreaches such as mask mandates and lockdown orders are ineffective at best and unconstitutional at worst.  Parents, not schools, should decide whether their child wears a mask at school.  

We also support exemptions from vaccine requirements, including medical, religious, and other types of requests. Elected officials should respect your right to decide for yourself whether to mask or get vaccinations.

Taxes

We believe taxes are too high already and therefore oppose any and all tax increases.  Many middle-class Americans are already paying close to 50% of their income in taxes when you consider federal, state, and local income taxes along with sales taxes, property taxes, excise taxes, death taxes, etc.  Increased taxation also stunts job growth and discourages reinvestment of capital into the economy.

Criminal Justice

We oppose civil asset forfeiture and believe that property should only be forfeited upon a conviction of crime in a criminal court. 

We are opposed to the militarization of police departments.  There is no need for a small-town police department to have a tactical assault vehicle or tank. 

We support body cameras on law enforcement officers to ensure accountability.

Currency

We believe crypto currency should be free from ad valorem (property) taxes as any other type of currency currently is. 

We believe Gold and Silver should be used to back the dollar so the Federal Reserve can’t print fiat money at will. We oppose the taxation of profits or losses incurred from precious metals transactions, as these are often “phantom” gains caused only by the devaluation of the dollar.

Educational Freedom

We fully support the right of parents to homeschool or send their children to private schools when they do not feel their children are getting a good education in the public school system. 

We believe in school choice.  Parents should be able to move their children from failing schools to a school where their child has a better chance at a good education and success in life.  We believe that the money should follow the child. Forcing students to stay in failing schools is a disservice to the community.  Children should have the opportunity to get the best education available within their geographic region. 

There are problems within the public school system that must be corrected:

We support the repeal of Common Core education standards, because we believe it promotes some objectionable material and because education has failed to improve under that system many years after its implementation.  It is also completely unconstitutional for the federal government to be telling states what they must teach.  The Department of Education has basically forced states to accept the standards by tying grant money to the standards. We believe curriculum should be customized at the local level to meet the needs of each school district.  We also have serious concerns about the amount of data being collected on students by the federal government. 

Additionally, we support the abolition of the federal Department of Education.

Privacy

We oppose Unconstitutional red-light traffic cameras that do not allow you to face your accuser and allow 3rd-party companies (often overseas) to collect data on your movements.  

We oppose “no-knock” warrants which allow police officers to enter a premises without first announcing their presence or purpose. 

We support requiring a warrant for electronic and biometric data.
