Our Values

When we say that we want to renew democracy, we’re talking about a lot more than ensuring free and fair elections. We seek to reinvigorate the self-preservation instinct of free societies. This means ensuring healthy institutions and policy that actually works for people. After countless hours of debate, we’ve landed on ten core principles that we believe are at the foundation of a functioning democracy. They cut across partisan lines and lie at the core of our vision for the future. If they speak to you like they do for us, we hope you’ll join our movement!

  1. Freedom of the press, speech, conscience, religion, and assembly.
  2. Integrity and fairness of elections.
  3. Equal justice, due process, and an independent judiciary.
  4. Equality of opportunity, but not necessarily of outcome.
  5. A competitive marketplace free from corruption.
  6. Free flow of goods, services, capital, and ideas.
  7. A rational and humane immigration policy.
  8. A government accountable to its citizens.
  9. Civil discussion of controversial political issues.
  10. Safeguarding the rights of all individuals.
