Founded in 1990, the Republican Liberty Caucus (RLC) is a national, grass roots organization affiliated with the Republican Party. The goal of the RLC is to elect pro-liberty candidates to office. Georgans have been involved in the RLC since its founding in 1990. The Republican Liberty Caucus of Georgia (RLC-GA) was formally chartered in 2002.

The Republican Liberty Caucus works to advance the principles of limited government, individual liberty, and free markets within the Republican Party and throughout the country. Our candidates focus on a broad range of issues, including taxation, property rights, gun rights, free speech, federalism and the proper role of government.

Offering a home for smaller government Republicans within the party, the Republican Liberty Caucus helps avoid a potential exodus to Libertarian, Constitution, and other third parties, which would open the door to big government victories from leftist candidates. The Republican Liberty Caucus is proud to promote the Republican Party's historic small government message.

While rolling back decades of government "nannyism" will require extensive public education and grassroots organizing, the most important means of changing public policy is to change public officials. Therefore, the Republican Liberty Caucus works to elect pro-liberty Republicans to offices at all levels, partisan and non-partisan, in both primary and general elections.

Vote NO - $750 million in tax-exempt, General Obligation Bonds

Filed at 11:27 pm under Announcements by Todd Pull

On the February 5th ballot the resident of Gwinnett will vote on a $750 million tax-exempt, General Obligation Bonds to support the County’s public schools. The funds will be used to “…to fund construction, technology, land purchases, and other “capital” needs”.

If you believe that our education system is in fundamental need of change, that we cannot continue to support a system that is falling behind the rest of the developed world in math and science, that we as a Nation cannot continue to support a failing system, the RLC of Gwinnett urges you to vote NO on February 5th.

Trash Service In Gwinnett

Filed at 11:02 pm under Announcements by Todd Pull

Gwinnett Clean and Beautiful is reviewing the County’s 10-year Comprehensive Solid Waste Management Plan. The organization asks how does this affect you. The short answer is to limit your choices and use the heavy hand of government to force consumer behavior. Although the site and related county published video elude to a proposed plan the actual details are left out of the conversation.

In the video there are a few references about requiring every household in Gwinnett to purchase trash services from one designated provider and requiring every household to pay for recycling services (even if you compost your yard waste you will still have to pay for the service). The site includes a “historic survey” of your opinion about the current trash collection system in Gwinnett.

Unfortunately for the truth the paragraphs leading to the link for the survey paint the current system as one big problem. Leading questions are used through-out the survey to force a negative response towards the current system. Again unfortunately for the truth the results of this biased survey will be used to justify a citizen’s demand from more government regulations and limiting of consumer choices.

The RLC of Gwinnett expects more out of our county and those appointed by our elected officials. As we evaluate the current system lets evaluate it openly and honestly. Lets looks at the positives and negatives. Lets fix the negatives and enhance the positives. Lets promote free markets and free market based solutions. Why does Gwinnett Clean and Beautiful want to force a heavy hand government solution on a Republican dominated county?
