We've Got Issues ...

by Phil Kerpen, Contributing Author and President of American Commitment: Yes, you read that right...we’ve got issues. And here they are:

• Defend Free Speech - We are committed to stopping all efforts to restrict the First Amendment, including shameful efforts to amend the Constitution to empower politicians to regulate political speech, attempts to undermine the privacy of members of groups that engage in controversial speech, and backdoor regulatory efforts to limit the First Amendment at federal agencies. Learn More.
• End Regulatory Tyranny - The rapid expansion of this power comes at an astonishing cost to American taxpayers and businesses and erodes our democracy by transferring power from our elected representatives to unelected bureaucrats and regulators. Learn More.
• Fix the Tax Code - We are committed to replacing America’s corrupt, loophole-laden, confusing, and economically destructive tax code with a simple system that taxes income once and only once, ending the punitive double and triple taxation of savings and investment. We are also committed to permanent repeal of the death tax, the most unfair tax of all, and to achieving corporate tax reform to make America the best place in the world to invest, build businesses, and create jobs. Learn More.
• Promote Economic Growth - We are committed to boosting America’s economic growth rate to create more jobs, higher incomes, better standards of living, and greater opportunities. Strong economic growth provides the resources with which to address all of society’s problems. The first question in any public policy debate must be how the proposal will affect economic growth. This overriding principle informs all of our commitments. Learn More.
• Protect Property Rights - We are committed to protecting property rights, a pillar of free society. From local communities adopting restrictions on private land use in the name of “sustainable development” to the galloping growth of state and federal land and water grabs, private property is in peril. Intellectual property is also under sustained assault, threatening to cripple some of America’s most important industries. We must win these fights and protect private property. Learn More.
• Protect the Free-Market Internet - We are committed to protecting the Internet from burdensome taxes, United Nations control, and unnecessary state and federal regulations. There has been no greater free-market success than the Internet. We must defend it from politicians and bureaucrats. Learn More about what we’re doing.
• Reform Health Care the Right Way - We are committed to fully repealing Washington’s health care takeover and replacing it with genuine health care reform that empowers patients and doctors, not politicians and bureaucrats. This is the best strategy to unleash American ingenuity and creativity to cure diseases and make our lives longer and better. Learn More.
• Restore Fiscal Sanity - We are committed to reducing the size and cost of the federal government, achieving a balanced budget through spending restraint, and stopping tax increases, which give Washington politicians more of our money to spend and therefore are at cross-purposes with cutting spending and balancing the budget. Learn More.
• Unlock American Energy - We are committed to unlocking America’s vast energy resources. Affordable, reliable, abundant energy is critical to a modern economy. Washington must stop taxing, regulating, and blocking access to American energy resources. Learn More.

Whew...I think that’s it. Good to get that off my chest.

Think American Commitment is crazy to take all that on? Maybe. But you don’t get the impressive results we’ve seen in so short a time by thinking small and not taking on big challenges.

Here’s a quick way to help: “Like” American Commitment on Facebook and Follow American Commitment on Twitter.

You don’t need a lecture on the “power” of social media. But we do need you to actually do this, so that the next time we’re trying to reach you and the rest of the growing American Commitment family, we can do so quickly and easily. Remember - maximum impact. That’s how we made fools of MoveOn.org with the video entered in their contest. We’ll post it and tweet it, and you can share it.

We’re working to restore liberty and prosperity to this country, and we can’t do it without you.
