What You Should Know About Us
- We are a 501(c)4 nonprofit membership organization that works for you, the People, and typically have members and supporters in all 50 U.S. States and the District of Columbia.
- We exist to create a world of maximal liberty and end government coercion that separates peaceable people from their life, liberty, and property.
-
We expand liberty through:
- Advocacy: By using direct and grassroots engagement to eliminate immoral laws and support pro-liberty outcomes. This includes litigation, research, scholarly publications, amicus briefing, and other programs.
- Culture: By growing an engaged community of natural rights proponents. This includes legislative and regulatory action, grassroots activism, education, outreach, and other programs.
- Support: By providing resources to those aligned with our mission. This includes both financial support, operational support, and "behind the scenes" work in many areas.
- We are currently working to achieve our Current Mission: Restore the essential right to keep and bear arms throughout the United States.
- We are doing everything possible to achieve the Current Mission on or before Dec. 31, 2032.
- We believe that achieving our Current Mission requires us to:
- Eliminate bans on common, constitutionally protected arms (including but not limited to fully featured semi-automatic firearms and magazines that hold more than 10 rounds).
- Eliminate bans on carry in places open to the public.
- Eliminate bans on the personal manufacture of common, constitutionally protected arms.
- Eliminate bans on non-dangerous adults aged 18 and older.
- We have strong Core Values:
- Principled -- we stay true to our Core Beliefs.
- Deliberate -- we debate to determine the best ideas.
- Enterprising -- we explore, try things, and learn.
- Relentless -- we are tenacious and gritty.
-
We believe that the People’s access to and exercise of natural rights, including that to personal property, are necessary to achieve and maintain a free world. To that end:
- We believe that all people have natural rights and are inherently entitled to life, liberty, and property, all of which are necessary to human flourishing.
- We believe that natural rights are not granted by governments, a byproduct of majority consensus or majoritarian process, or mere privileges conferred by any government, group, or creation of man.
- We believe that natural rights include but are not limited to the rights to self-defense and use of just force against unjust force; acquiring, possessing, training with, carrying, and using arms for moral and just purposes; free speech; association; protest; privacy; due process; equal protection of the laws; private property; and free markets.
- We believe that how a government or society regulates the right to keep and bear arms is a strong and likely leading indicator of how that government or society does or will approach regulation of other rights and personal property.
- We believe that well-armed people make tyranny at scale significantly more costly.
- We believe that liberty is correlated with access to innovation and technology, including but not limited to that of arms, speech, and encryption.
- We believe that it is immoral to unjustly use force to take the life, liberty, or property of others.
- We believe that we must eliminate coercion and immoral laws, policies, regulations, customs, and enforcement practices in order to fulfill our Purpose.
