The Citizen Leader PAC is a non-partisan political action committee that allows individual leaders to engage in the political process by pooling personal, voluntary financial contributions to support election campaigns at the local and state government levels in Texas.
The Citizen Leader PAC supports state and local political candidates based on the principles that reflect the priorities of its members. The Citizen Leader PAC Board of Directors determines whether or not to support candidates based on the following pro-liberty commitments:
Limited Government
Government is a monopoly, and like all monopolies tends toward corruption and exploitative behavior. By necessity, therefore, the scope and scale of government must be limited. Limited government requires eternal vigilance through active participation in the political process by private sector leaders.
Individual Liberty
The United States was founded on the idea that the citizen is sovereign. Governments must be committed to the cultivation and protection of individual liberty, and its matched pair, individual responsibility. Our political system must serve the people, not rule them.
Free Enterprise & Free Trade
The most powerful, proven instrument of material and social progress is the free market. Entrepreneurs, who use markets to create and capture value, are a critical driver of this progress. To improve the condition of its citizens, a nation needs a legal and social framework that encourages and rewards risk-taking and entrepreneurship, and harnesses comparative advantage.
Economic Growth
Economic growth is essential to the flourishing of a nation. Efficient tax policy, stable and well-defined property rights, rational and restrained regulation, and freedom from the distortions of government encroachment on the private sector are prerequisites for the expansion of the economy and the national wealth.
