A proposal for a general yet comprehensive LP Pledge which encourages a dedication first and foremost to foundational principles.
2006-07-27 Human Rights Proposal 2.
Allows the government to encourage liberty abroad—albeit primarily by setting a good example.
2006-07-27 The Membership Pledge Proposal 17.
Pledge adopted by the South Carolina LP.
2006-06-14 The Membership Pledge Proposal 16.
As a candidate or party officer of the Libertarian Party, I will work to move public policy in a libertarian direction.
2006-05-29 Individual Rights Full LRC Platform - Version 1.0.
Here is my first draft of a complete platform for the LRC. It is a compilation of the most popular planks on our site, with minor changes, editions, additions and subtractions, as well as some popular proposals in the current platform, as well as new proposals written mostly or entirely by myself for important planks where there were no popular proposals (including immigration, foreign policy, military and environment planks.) Comments on proposals were factored into the versions here.
2006-05-26 New Foreign Policy Planks Foreign Affairs.
A replacement for both the Foreign Intervention and Military Policy planks that allows the U.S. to go after the world's worst criminals.
2006-05-17 Taxation Proposal 7.
This is an LP tax platform plank that links taxes and services, eliminates (earned) income and property taxes, while maintaining other traditional sources of taxation. Modified from Thomas Knapp's proposal.
2006-05-04 The Membership Pledge Proposal 15.
An LP Pledge based on the Declaration of Independence. Sometimes we don't improve much on the original, other than by updating the language.
2006-05-04 Colonialism Proposal 1.
Adds Puerto Rico to the list of colonies mentioned and points out the
responsibility of such terretories to govern themselves.
2006-05-04 Individual Sovereignty Proposal 1.
Narrowing the purpose—There's plenty of language in the platform about individual rights. "Sovereign immunity" should be addressed in a very focused and legalistic manner, rather than (as in the existing plank) being overloaded with an excess of ideological verbiage.
2006-05-02 The Statement of Principles Proposal 7.
while i think i like Proposal 4 best of all so far, but i wanted to offer a more incremental proposal that might have a better chance of passing on the floor at Portland. i borrowed this idea from the LPNC, which only modifies the first sentence.
2006-05-02 Government Secrecy Proposal 1.
Government is the servant of the individuals who comprise this country. Classification is a privilege granted government solely for the purpose of protecting information which disclosure of would threaten the security of the country itself.
2006-04-25 Taxation Proposal 6.
An LP tax platform plank should be simple (lower taxes), targeted (toward linking taxes and services) and open-ended (no need to argue over ultimately keeping a few taxes or eliminating them all).
2006-04-25 The Membership Pledge Proposal 14.
A mostly natural rights based pledge which also allows some concession to utilitarian concerns—where the economic case for government action is overwhelming.
2006-04-25 The Membership Pledge Proposal 13.
A natural rights based pledge. One that could be signed by anarchists, minarchists and geolibertarians.
2006-04-25 The Membership Pledge Proposal 12.
Another un-pledge. This one is based on the Statement of Principles.
2006-04-25 The Membership Pledge Proposal 11.
An un-pledge.
2006-04-25 The Statement of Principles Proposal 6.
A proposed rewrite of the National Libertarian Party Statement of Principles using Constitutional language.
2006-04-23 Social Security Proposal 3.
A five step plan.
2006-04-20 Choosing Your Government Approval Voting and Democracy.
A description of approval voting and why it is good for a healthy democracy. It would be beneficial not only to the Libertarian Party if it were implemented but to other third parties as well.
2006-04-14 New Domestic Policy Planks Salaries of Elected Officials.
This issue was brought up in the comments for the proposed plank on congressional term limits. The 109th Congress is set to meet less than 100 days this year. The American people should not be paying six-figure salaries to the members of a body that doesn't even meet for more than 1/3 of a year. Congress can't be allowed to simultaneously raise its pay and not work.
2006-04-14 Immigration Proposal 7.
This proposal is an attempt to reduce the motivation for illegal immigration and thus make protecting our borders much easier.
2006-03-18 Foreign Intervention Proposal 1.
Not everyone agrees that the United States should never get intervene in the affairs of other countries. This moderated plank addresses three possible exceptions to the rule that we should stay out of other nations' business.
2006-03-18 Immigration Proposal 6.
We all agree that the current LP platform is no good; we need some controls on immigration. We just disagree on what controls there should be. Here's my preferred position.
2006-03-18 Education Proposal 2.
This proposal borrows heavily from the previous one but I reworked some aspects significantly or deleted them entirely. I tried to break down what responsibilities each level of government has towards education.
2006-03-17 Consumer Protection Proposal 1.
Libertarian principles can apply to consumer protection in quite a different way than the current plank. Here's my view on the subject.
2006-03-17 World Government Proposal 3.
A short, succinct proposal to address the Libertarian position on the United Nations and other forms of world government.
2006-03-14 Health Care Proposal 3.
Government regulation is not the sole cause of current healthcare problems. There are others which the Libertarian Party must address if we are to be credible on the issue.
2006-03-14 Social Security Proposal 2.
A new version of the platform that uses the benefits section of Carl Milsted, while using the existing plank elsewhere. It removes the aggressive language from the existing plank.
2006-03-14 World Government Proposal 2.
This proposal would implement, internationally, what America's founders intended for our free and independent American States. It uses the United Nations to give more freedom to Americans and, actually, the freedom we were intended to have. It gives each of the American States full membership in the United Nations—just as the Soviet Union wanted for its Republics and President Roosevelt countered with for each of the 48 united States. It is a challenge to all nations to give sovereignty to each of their member divisions and peoples. “People” in this context describes any unified group of individuals whether or not they are officially a “state” or “nation”. They could be the equivalent of many Native American “Nations.” They could be the equivalent of the Kurdish “People” or the Armenian “People.” The latter has gained recognition as a formal Nation and member of the United Nations.
2006-03-12 Human Rights Proposal 1.
A simplified version that takes out the overly utopian parts and is altered so as to appeal to liberals in society.
2006-03-05 Energy Proposal 1.
Here's a proposal to bring common sense to the Energy issue—presenting a Libertarian viewpoint which will attract rather than repel new voters.
2006-03-05 Taxation Proposal 5.
Yet another proposal to reform the Taxation plank in a more moderate, common-sense direction.
2006-03-05 The Right to Keep and Bear Arms Proposal 2.
A brief proposal to moderate the Libertarian Party's weapons policy.
2006-03-05 Freedom of Communication Proposal 1.
The main issue found with the current Libertarian Party plank on communication is that some form of regulation is required for broadcast media. This proposed change to the existing plank reduces verbiage and eliminates all reference to the FCC or its basic functions. The rest of the plank is essentially intact.
2006-02-28 Individual Rights A Libertarian platform of under two thousand words..
The following is a complete rewrite of under two thousand words. Nearly all the text is copied from the present platform but over eighty percent of the platform text was omitted. Many planks were eliminated entirely since they should not be in a platform. The rewrite is limited to succinct planks stating principles that could be constitutional amendments with only slight rewording.
2006-01-29 Conscription and the Military Proposal 2.
One problem with the platform is that it is far too wordy. In an effort to reduce words by cropping out minor issues, this proposal would focus on the most vital issues from a moderate Libertarian viewpoint.
2006-01-29 The War on Drugs Proposal 2.
A proposed change to moderate the Libertarian Party's stance on the War on Drugs to advocate gradual change, only calling immediately for the legalization of marijuana, but leaving the door open for the legalization of harder drugs.
2006-01-29 Crime Proposal 1.
Here's a proposal to make the crime plank more palatable to voters and more incremental in nature while retaining the essential principle involved. It would also make the "Victimless Crimes" plank redundant.
2006-01-25 Crime and Justice .
A proposal for entirely rewriting the entire Crime section of the Libertarian Party platform, moderating our positions, reducing word count, and doing away with the abominable "New Format."
2006-01-17 The Statement of Principles Proposal 5.
A modified version of the Statement of Principles adopted by the Libertarian Party of Texas in 2004.
2006-01-09 The Membership Pledge Proposal 10.
One of the most damaging things to a libertarian's credibility is that they are not registered to vote or, if they are registered, they are shown as an inactive voter because they rarely vote. This also affects the credibility of libertarian candidates because not even their compatriot libertarians vote for them.
2006-01-09 Individual Rights Complete platform rewrite in one page.
This is actually a complete platform rewrite.
2005-11-21 Immigration Proposal 5.
Immigration for those who obey the law and desire citizenship.
2005-10-30 Conscription and the Military Proposal 1.
This proposal is a plank about only Conscription. I propose placing our other positions on the Military in a separate plank.
2005-10-30 The Right to Property Proposal 1.
Revised plank smoothes and significantly shortens the language of the plank, removes idealist language about taxes and adds opposition to the abuse of eminent domain.
2005-10-30 Freedom of Religion Proposal 1.
Revised plank smoothes language, removes phrases incompatible incrementalism, and articulates additional positions on more relevant issues.
2005-10-30 New Domestic Policy Planks Same-Sex Unions.
A sample Same-Sex Unions plank, so that this issue may be debated separately from the Sexual Rights plank. This proposal calls for Civil Unions without asserting a right to them, while taking no position on marriage.
2005-10-30 Immigration Proposal 4.
Like the current plank, this proposal calls for immigration liberalization, but does not advocate allowing workers to remain undocumented.
2005-09-23 Immigration Proposal 3.
The proposal is an idea that encompases Libertarian ideas of business control with the current need of a wall seperating us from our border neighbors.
2005-09-13 The Membership Pledge Proposal 9.
This is a rewrite of Tim West's proposed pledge for LP party officers and nominees for public office. This version seeks to remove redundant language.
2005-09-13 Women's Rights and Abortion Proposal 3.
A compromise abortion plank, based on trimester.
2005-09-11 Women's Rights and Abortion Proposal 2.
An abortion plank that emphasizes the Tenth Amendment.
2005-09-07 Government Debt Proposal 1.
This proposal is a realistic plank for bringing the government back into the black.
2005-09-01 New Domestic Policy Planks Government Waste.
This proposal tackles the popular issue of wasteful government spending head-on.
2005-08-31 The Membership Pledge Proposal 8.
A pledge should go further than just stating what one believes or advocates. It should also be a pledge of what one will do. Our actions should help and not just be publicity stunts which may harm. Abdicating positions to authoritarians abandons the battlefield and lets the enemy win by default.
2005-08-31 Immigration Proposal 2.
This plank is a reasonable proposal for opening America's borders to peaceful immigrants.
2005-08-31 Health Care Proposal 2.
This proposal moves America in the direction of a patient-powered healthcare system, not a government-powered one.
2005-08-31 New Domestic Policy Planks Term Limits.
This plank proposes term limits for members of Congress.
2005-08-31 Sexual Rights Proposal 1.
This proposal supports equal sexual rights for all sexual orientations and gender indentities. It also proposes a system of non-discriminatory civil unions for all couples.
2005-08-31 The Statement of Principles Proposal 4.
A more general, more concise statement of principles. Uses traditional language.
2005-08-31 Election Laws Proposal 1.
The present electoral system is unfair to minority parties and all but guarantees that there will be no effective challenge to the monopoly enjoyed by the major parties. The LP Plank, on the other hand, raises the specter of a parliamentary system even more reflective of the divisions in our nation than the present system. A ban on foreign donations is in keeping with important national ideals.
2005-08-16 Health Care Proposal 1.
A proposal for separation of medicine and state.
2005-08-16 The Membership Pledge Proposal 7.
Same as the previous pledge (Proposal 6), but for all members.
2005-08-14 Immigration Proposal 1.
Makes a case for reducing immigration substantially.
2005-07-03 The Membership Pledge Proposal 6.
A pledge for officers and candidates only. Proposes that we eliminate the Pledge for members, but do require it for party officers and candidates.
2005-06-21 The Right to Keep and Bear Arms Proposal 1.
A Constitutional argument. Makes the case that private citizens are part of the militia; ergo, they have the right to bear arms.
2005-06-19 The Economy Proposal 2.
A more progressive rewrite of the original platform plank. Aims to focus on legitimate economic functions of government and incremental priorities for Libertarian policies as opposed to broad and drastic promises of revolutionary change.
2005-06-19 Taxation Proposal 4.
Specific to a Consumption Tax. Proposes unifying the tax system to a single consumption tax collected by the states.
2005-06-19 The Statement of Principles Proposal 3.
A straightforward approach. Simple language describing the purpose of the Libertarian Party. No anarchistic language.
2005-06-19 The Statement of Principles Proposal 2.
A modification of Capozzi’s proposal.
2005-06-19 The Economy Proposal 1.
The first proposal.
2005-06-18 Freedom and Responsibility Proposal 1.
Drop the "Transitional Actions." This proposal is the same as the status quo except for a change of headings and dropping the "Transition Actions" section.
2005-06-14 The Membership Pledge Proposal 5.
This Pledge uses language that describes the libertarian philosophy that all political positions must be deduced from the principle that the initiation of force is always wrong. However, it also supports the idea that violent revolution in self-defense is morally acceptable.
2005-06-14 The Membership Pledge Proposal 4.
While David Nolan has stated that the reason he introduced the Pledge was to protect the LP from accusations that it was a violent, revolutionary conspiracy, many Libertarians have signed the Pledge believing it was a summation of their political philosophy. In their view, the Pledge should limit membership in the Libertarian Party to those persons who agree that government should stop its initiation of force. This pledge clearly supports the latter view.
2005-06-14 The Membership Pledge Proposal 3.
While David Nolan states that he introduced the Pledge to protect the LP from accusations that it was a violent revolutionary conspiracy, its major use has been to expel Party members who have committed some crime of violence. This version of the Pledge provides for that use, maintains a prohibition of violent revolution, and avoids language that suggests that all Libertarians share a committment to the political philosophy that the initiation of force is always wrong.
2005-06-14 The Membership Pledge Proposal 2.
Many Libertarians, including David Nolan who introduced the Pledge when the LP was founded, argue that the existing pledge means that signers are committed to peaceful political change. However, the language used is very similar to Ayn Rand's summation of her political philosophy, which allows for violent revolution as a defense against government initiation of force. This version clearly refers to opposition to revolutionary violence rather than committment to a particular libertarian political philosophy.
2005-06-08 The Membership Pledge Proposal 1.
A pledge not to change the party direction. A pledge to realize the purpose of the LP and to not change it. Does allow the party to be incremental, however.
2005-06-01 The Membership Pledge Have no Membership Pledge.
2004-05-31 The Membership Pledge Keep the Existing Membership Pledge.

2005-05-27 Taxation Proposal 3.
This proposal begins with making the 2001 income tax rate cuts permanent and cutting spending to balance the budget. Other “first term” goals are repealing the Clinton and Bush I tax hikes of the nineties and implementing a 20% alternative maximum tax. The proposal also includes longer term reform proposals—an optional flat tax with no specified rate or personal exemption (a possible first term goal) and an even longer term proposal to end the personal income tax and have a national sales tax.
