The cause of freedom is the proper limitation of government.
Therefore, OUR MISSION is...
to limit government to its proper function of securing Our Rights.
This is exactly what our Constitution is designed to do!

This is exactly what our Constitution is designed to do!
Our Founding Fathers got it right in the Declaration [of Independence] when they wrote that the purpose of government is to secure individual Rights. To ensure our FREEDOM, government power must be limited... just enough to secure, but not enough to infringe upon, our natural Rights.
Unfortunately, We the People have largely forgotten this basic truth, and are thus failing to hold our government officials accountable to keep their oath. The result is that our freedom is less and less secure!
Today there are some who seek to change or replace our Constitution, claiming that we need to fix our "outdated" Constitution - the oldest still operational constitution in the world. These advocates of radical change argue that our Constitution needs to be updated or replaced in order to remedy the growing problems we face in America.
We should only change our Constitution if our Constitution is the problem. America is struggling with many seemingly unsurmountable challenges: ever-increasing debt, poverty, disease, pollution, crime, and violence. Does this mean our Constitution is no longer a useful document?
Hardly! Before We the People rush to replace the best constitution ever written, we should consider the fact that while our national problems are increasing, our adherence to the Constitution is decreasing. And the less we follow our Constitution, the worse become our problems! Our problem is NOT the Constitution, but rather... our problem is that we are not following the Constitution!
So how can we achieve our mission of restoring adherence to our Constitution?
