RLC STATEMENT
OF PRINCIPLES:
- The
Republican Liberty Caucus supports individual rights, limited government
and free enterprise.
- We
believe every human being is endowed by nature with inherent rights
to life, liberty and property that are properly secured by law.
- We
support a strict construction of the Bill of Rights as a defense against
tyranny; the expansion of those rights to all voluntary consensual
conduct under the Ninth and Tenth Amendments; and the requirements
of equal protection and due process under the Fourteenth Amendment.
- We
support the Constitutional restrictions on federal government powers
enumerated in Article I, Section 8 as an absolute limit on all government
functions and programs.
- We
oppose the adoption of broad and vague powers under the guise of general
welfare or interstate commerce.
- We
oppose all restrictions on the voluntary and honest exchange of value
in a free market.
- We
favor minimal, equitable, and fair taxation for the essential functions
of government.
- We
oppose all legislation that concedes Congressional power to any regulatory
agency, executive department, or international body.
- We
support the Constitution as the supreme law of the land, the republican
form of government it requires, and the right of all citizens to fair
and equitable representation.
We believe these are also the proper positions of the Republican
Party.

"I
don't like being exposed to Kenny G's music, cigarette smoke or patchouli
oil, but I will defend the right of other folks to have all that junk,
the right of business owners to allow it, and my right not to have to
be around it. Government should not regulate anything that citizens
can avoid by turning around and walking out."
-Wyoming state Senator Cale Case
