We, the members of the Libertarian Reform Caucus believe that America needs a real libertarian party, a party that promotes liberty while being conscious of political reality, a party designed to win elections and begin rolling back excess government now. In particular, the party needs:

A platform that proposes a realistic vision for the next few years, as opposed to an idealistic vision of a libertarian future. The public expects a party platform to show what a party's candidates intend to do during the next term of office. If the party wants a long term vision statement, it should be in a separate document labeled as such.
A platform that unites libertarians rather than dividing them. Where libertarians disagree, the platform should be silent. The party should be a tool for all libertarians.
A platform based on the realization that there are other important values in addition to the non-initiation of force. Freedom is extremely valuable, but it is not the only value.

Membership entitles one to:

Participate in our sentiment polls designed for building a consensus opinion for changing the Libertarian Party platform and other actions.
Participate in any in-person meetings of the caucus that may arise.
Represent oneself as a member of the Libertarian Reform Caucus.

Please note: www.ReformTheLP.org is a service provided to the caucus by a legally distinct entity (to be determined) whose purpose is to encourage productive interaction between practical libertarians who want to begin bringing about liberty in the near future.
