What We Believe
We believe that all Citizens are entitled to equal rights and equal treatment under the law, and that no one shall be denied these rights because of gender, race, ethnic origin, sexual orientation or religion.
We believe in the separation of Church and State, and we believe that the current use of Executive powers to promote a fundamentalist Christian agenda is wrong and a violation of the Constitution.
We believe in the People’s right to privacy, and that the Patriot Act is a threat to that right and a violation of the Constitution.
We believe in economic fairness and the right of every American to a job that pays a living wage.
We believe that pre-emptive war is wrong and that this country should seek solutions to international threats through diplomatic channels and the United Nations.
We believe that every Citizen is entitled to quality health care and that universal health insurance should be a priority for our nation.
We believe that the environment is a trust and that we are responsible for preserving it for future generations.
We believe in the public school system and that every child should have an opportunity for free, quality education in a safe environment.
We believe that Congressional, Executive and Judicial powers should be separate, and the erosion of these separations of power is a threat to our Constitution and the Peoples’ liberty.
We believe that the grassroots can make a difference in our government and that it is every Citizen’s obligation to participate in the governing process. We believe that special interests should not control our nation’s policies or resources.
We believe, above all, in the Constitution of the United States of America and in the right of the People to liberty, security, and opportunity.
