About The Medical Liberty Pledge

image of a checkmark in red white and blueThroughout history, governments have argued the need to take away individual rights for the good of the people. Recognizing the harm this has universally wrought, America was founded on the core value of individual rights and freedoms – the right of each individual to liberty. At the core of individual rights is the right of every American to decide whether to consent to a medical product or procedure. If Americans cannot make these decisions without threat of expulsion from work, school or participation in civil society, there are no rights the government cannot trample. It is precisely when it is difficult to uphold this right, such as during a pandemic, that this right becomes meaningful. The Medical Liberty Pledge is intended to create a common bond among all liberty-loving politicians so that when these rights are challenged, they can feel more confident standing in unison against the ultimate trespass on liberty, coerced government medicine, and forced medical procedures.
