The impetus for the Tea Party movement is excessive government spending, and the intrusion of government into areas for which it has no constitutional sanction. The following core values bind us together as a group:
CORE VALUES
· Fiscal Responsibility
· Limited Government
· Free Markets
Fiscal Responsibility: Fiscal Responsibility by government honors and respects the freedom of the individual to spend the money that is the fruit of their own labor. A constitutionally limited government, designed to protect the blessings of liberty, must be fiscally responsible or it must subject its citizenry to high levels of taxation that unjustly restrict the liberty our Constitution was designed to protect. Such runaway deficit spending as we now see in Washington D.C. compels us to take action as the increasing national debt is a grave threat to our national sovereignty and the personal and economic liberty of future generations.
Constitutionally Limited Government: We, the members of The Metro Valley Patriots, are inspired by our founding documents and regard the Constitution of the United States to be the supreme law of the land. We believe that it is possible to know the original intent of the government our founders set forth, and stand in support of that intent. Like the founders, we support states' rights for those powers not expressly stated in the Constitution. As the government is of the people, by the people and for the people, in all other matters we support the personal liberty of the individual, within the rule of law.
Free Markets: A free market is the economic consequence of personal liberty. The founders believed that personal and economic freedom were indivisible, as do we. Our current government's interference distorts the free market and inhibits the pursuit of individual and economic liberty. Therefore, we support a return to the free market principles on which this nation was founded and oppose government intervention into the operations of private business.
The WV Metro Valley Patriots Tea Party is a non-partisan group of citizens from the Metro Valley area of West Virginia. We are united by our core values derived from the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States of America, and the Bill Of Rights. Our mission is to attract, educate, organize, and mobilize our fellow citizens to secure public policy consistent with our core values of Fiscal Responsibility, Limited Government and Free Markets.
We no longer can accept the ruling of a Political Class who define themselves as Democrat or Republican but govern as a separate and distinct class of citizens who use tax money to further their party or personal agendas despite the needs of the citizens they are supposed to represent.
Further, we acknowledge the duty of every citizen to hold our elected representatives accountable in the administration of their sworn duties to protect and uphold the tenets of the United States Constitution.
So far as we are able in a non-partisan manner, we plan to make the public aware of the performance and accountability of elected officials and candidates for public office as to how they uphold our core values.
