  • Exporting Freedom
    When one speaks of freedom, many automatically think of the United States of America. However, the concept of freedom is as old as humanity itself. Even though America is an experiment in freedom, people in other countries have the same longing for freedom, especially if their government is oppressive. The John Birch Society believes in freedom for all and encourages those in other countries to work toward constitutional freedom that preserves freedom for generations to come.

  • Family and Freedom
    It is in the context of the family that men and women choose to exercise their most fundamental, God-given right, the right to life. But not only the right to their own life, but the right to create new, inviolate life. It is because it is within the family that the great inalienable rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are exercised in their fullest sense that the family is the foundation of all subsequent civilization.

  • National Sovereignty
    At the founding meeting of the John Birch Society Robert Welch warned, “[There is a plan] to induce the gradual surrender of American sovereignty ... to various international organizations...." The Society has always opposed the surrender of American sovereignty to any international organization, such as the United Nations, or the emerging North American Union.

  • War and Foreign Policy
    The John Birch Society agrees with the founders’ vision of a permanently, independent United States that trades with all nations (except for restrictions based on national defense considerations) and only goes to war on the basis of a congressional declaration of war.

  • Inflation, Taxes, Economy
    For nearly 50 years the John Birch Society has stood for ending inflation by returning to a gold-backed currency and greatly lowering taxes by reducing the size of the federal government to conform to the limited government prescribed by the Constitution.

  • Health Care
    Under our system of freedom, our American health care system became the finest in the world. Now, many propose a system of universal health care run by the government The John Birch Society opposes universal government health care which would inevitably lead to the decreasing levels of quality and health-care rationing experienced by all other nations with national health care.

  • Education and Homeschooling
    The U.S. Constitution does not make any provision for federal involvement in education. Therefore, the John Birch Society opposes all federal aid to and regulation of education. The state should be the highest level of government concerned with education; however, since parents have the ultimate responsibility for the education of their children, local control of education is best. Furthermore, parents should be free to home school their children.

  • Environment
    The John Birch Society has pointed out over the years how environmentalism as a political movement has promoted more federal and international control over our lives and property. The current movement to legislate strict reductions of carbon emissions in the name of reducing the alleged global warming problem has the potential to devastate our nation’s economy

  • Energy
    The John Birch Society supports less government regulation on the energy industry so that our domestic sources of energy, such as offshore oil fields, the Alaskan National Wildlife Refuge, nuclear power, and coal can be developed to help meet our nation’s energy needs.

  • Right to Bear Arms
    A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. (Second Amendment, U.S. Constitution)

    For many decades the John Birch Society has consistently upheld the right of individual citizens to keep and bear arms, as secured by the Second Amendment, for the purposes of hunting, self-defense, and as a last resort to resist tyranny. The Society's staff and members have been very active over the years in opposing the numerous civilian disarmament measures (aka gun control bills) considered by, and all too often passed by, Congress.
