1. Limited Government – As our Founding Fathers recognized, restraint of government is necessary to protect the liberties of the people. |
||
|
2. Fiscal Responsibility – Government at all levels must learn to live within its means. To saddle future generations with the crushing burden of our excess spending is unconscionable. |
||
|
3. Personal Responsibility – Liberty is unsustainable without responsibility. Each citizen must take responsibility for the consequences of his or her own actions while respecting the rights and dignity of others. |
||
|
4. The Rule of Law – Consistent, independent and uniform application of the law is critical to a free and prosperous society |
||
|
5. National Sovereignty – We must maintain a strong national defense, effective security for our borders, and sole control over our land and our laws. |

Our mission is to motivate our local citizens to participate in all levels of government for the protection of liberty, through awareness, education and action.
We envision our local citizens knowledgeable and active in their political realm, participating in their local, county, school district, state and federal governing bodies with the intent to re-establish fiscal responsibility, limited government, personal responsibility, the rule of law, and national sovereignty.
We envision our citizens personally knowing their candidates and the issues and using this knowledge to hold our elected officials and candidates accountable.
We envision a government for and of the people, a government that supports the Constitution of the United States of America and answers to those people for whom it was created.
We are your Allen, Lucas and Parker
friends and neighbors united by a common concern: the direction
our country is taking. Most of us have voted in the past, but have done
little to influence the direction our
representatives have taken once in
office.
Our elected officials have blatantly drifted from our constitution. Our liberties and freedoms are quickly eroding. It's time "We the People" take action, defend our constitution, demand moral and ethical leadership, and preserve the American dream.
Allen Area Patriots, along with other organizations, provide
education on issues, political processes, and current events that are
critical to our community, schools, county, state and federal
government. Instead of trying to obtain information individually,
we work collectively on issues and options. We occasionally
provide an opportunity for candidates and elected officials to speak at
our meetings to give us a clear understanding of w
ho they are, why we
should/should not vote for them. We organize with other groups for
rallies, protests and communications targeting politicians already in
office so they hear their constituents clearly and act accordingly as
our representative.
In spite of being ignored by the media, we are rapidly growing in numbers and strength.
If you are concerned about the direction your government is taking, it's time for you to speak out. In the words of Thomas Jefferson, "We in America do not have government by the majority. We have government by the majority who participate.”
