Freedom's Watch believes in the mainstream conservative values of limited government, a strong national defense, low taxes, free enterprise, and personal responsibility. We believe there is no substitute for American leadership in the world, and that post-9/11 we must actively defend our national security interests. Domestically, we promote and advance solutions to public policy issues based on free market principles, not government command and control. In short, you will always find Freedom’s Watch on the side of free people and free markets.
A Strong Economy – Freedom’s Watch believes the keys to a strong economy are to lower taxes; keep interest rates stable and inflation in check; cut government red tape; reduce federal spending; eliminate waste, fraud, and abuse; and enact tort reform to end frivolous lawsuits.
Threat from Radical Islam – Freedom’s Watch believes that victory is the only option in Iraq and the War on Terror, and that the threat from Iran is real – Iran must not be allowed to acquire nuclear weapons.
Support for the Troops – Freedom’s Watch never forgets the sacrifices of our brave men and women in uniform and supports enhancing the quality of life of military personnel and their families.
Quality Health Care – Freedom’s Watch supports legislative efforts to increase access to and affordability of private-sector health care by using tax incentives and free market principles; we oppose attempts to put the government in charge of health care.
A Strong National Defense – Freedom’s Watch believes we must rebuild a military that was systematically underfunded during the Clinton years, which means increasing the size of the force; improving readiness; investing in modernization and more equipment; and improving intelligence gathering.
Securing Our Borders –Freedom’s Watch believes that our borders must be secured, immigration laws enforced, and assimilation encouraged.
Illegal Drugs – Freedom’s Watch opposes the legalization of illicit drugs and supports a drug policy that is both tough and humane, and based on enforcement, prevention, and treatment.
Picking Sound Judges –Freedom’s Watch will vigorously support strict constructionists and oppose liberal activist judicial nominees to our highest courts – it is critical that judges follow the law and not legislate from the bench.
Opposing Big Labor’s Radical Agenda – Freedom’s Watch opposes Big Labor’s efforts to expand union membership through coercion and intimidation, and we will stand up to the labor boss’ radical agenda of higher taxes and more government control of the economy.
