Proposed Legislation Creates Treasury-Funded Campaigns for the Two Major Parties, Leaving Third Parties with No Means to Run

(Washington, D.C.) On February 1, congressional Democrats, led by Rep. Obey of Wisconsin, introduced a bill, H.R. 4694, that would end viable, third-party competition in races for the U.S. House of Representatives.

Strategy for Growth

When precincts are organized, the Libertarian vote is maximized and our candidates do better at the polls. In addition to statutory responsibilities for the conduct of precinct conventions, the Precinct Chair is responsible for canvassing the precinct and coordinating all campaign work in that precinct, arranging meetings, recruiting volunteers, and training and directing those volunteers. The Precinct Chair carries out all the Party's strategies in the precinct. A good Precinct Chair is the soul of the Party.
