Working
to build the Libertarian Party in the Martinsville
area
The Patrick Henry Libertarian
Committee intends to be the Libertarian Party affiliate
group in the counties of Patrick and Henry and the city of
Martinsville. Our goal is to extend the libertarian
philosophy in our home area and work to build support of
the Libertarian Party here. The libertarian
philosophy is rooted in the principles of individual liberty
and truly free market economics. It is the belief of the
Libertarian Party that the path to a better tomorrow is best
found through working toward government policies
that allow and protect the natural rights of the
people while at the same time allowing for a free and open
market free from unnecessary government intervention. Learn
more about the Libertarian Party and our ideals at the following

the Libertarian Party?
