Can you depend on common sense from the government?
Consider the following:
- Ninety-seven percent of ObamaCare’s newly insured are on Medicaid;
- An ailing senior citizen’s home was targeted for civil asset forfeiture after a drug dealer – in the midst of a police chase – broke into her home and attempted to hide the drugs in his possession;
- Law enforcement drones equipped with high-tech cameras can scan entire cities or zoom-in and read your computer screen or paperwork sitting on your kitchen table.
Is it any wonder that an overwhelming majority of Americans believe this country is going in the wrong direction?
Many government bureaucrats seem to have gone off the deep end as they blatantly ignore the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.
For example, under civil asset forfeiture laws, the government can seize your private property without even charging you with a crime.
Civil asset forfeiture laws presume your property is guilty of a crime. If you can’t prove it is “innocent”, you can lose it – even if you have not been accused of any wrongdoing!
It is imperative we work to repeal the laws that bureaucrats are using to trample our rights.
That is why Campaign for Liberty is working on a Candidate Survey Program. Each candidate for the Arkansas State Assembly and Senate has received a survey of seven important questions that put candidates on the record on liberty issues.
Candidates were asked where they stand on:
- Taxes and fees
- Medicaid expansion
- Free political speech
- Civil Forfeiture reform
- Drones
- No-knock warrants
- Common Core

As we work toward liberty, it is critical to have current and potential legislators on record concerning key issues.
Therefore, it is vital we receive responses from as many candidates as possible.
Some candidates don’t want to go on the record, so they need to hear from you.
If the candidates in your area have not responded to our survey, please contact them and ask that they complete and submit the Campaign for Liberty Survey.
*Campaign for Liberty does not support, endorse, or oppose candidates for office. The goal of the Campaign for Liberty Survey is only for keeping candidates true to their word should they be elected. It should not be construed as an endorsement of any candidate.
You are encouraged to view the websites and statements of each candidate to make an informed decision on candidate positions.
