Mr. Longstreth and Mr. Smith have already signed on. One more co-sponsor
is needed.
Whereas governmental bodies in the ongoing COVID-19 crisis have stepped
beyond their rightful powers, and
Whereas no person or organization can claim to hold the principles of
liberty in times of peace and plenty who does not hold them as firmly in
times of emergency,
Be it therefore resolved that the Libertarian National Committee make known
its opposition to tyranny in humanitarian’s clothing, affirming that:
No "emergency," whether declared or undeclared, shall be used as a pretext
or justification for the limitation of any of the rights and freedoms of
the individual, or for the expansion of the powers of government or any of
its agencies, representatives, or member institutions.

(part of the autism spectrum). This can affect inter-personal
communication skills in both personal and electronic arenas. If anyone
found anything offensive or overly off-putting (or some other social faux
pas) in an actual email, please contact me privately and let me know. *
