ABOUT US
-Smaller Government-
We believe government is responsible TO us, not FOR us. Our view of government is that of a necessary evil; one that must be kept in-check by an aware and informed public.
-Lower Taxes-
When a government taxes its citizens, it is essentially taking resources of one to give to another. We believe government is, by its nature, inefficient and spends our money with wanton abandon. We feel citizens should choose what to do with their money and their resources.
-More Freedom-
Our lives belong to us, not the state. Things such as mandatory service, warrantless searches, and intrusions on rights guaranteed by birth are not in keeping with the Constitution or common sense.
-Your Representative-
We feel we are the only political organization which respects you as a unique and competent individual.

-The Libertarian Option-
We want to let peaceful, honest people offer their goods and services to willing consumers without a hassle from government.

LIBERTARIAN PARTY OF NEBRASKA EYES SENATE SEAT
Impressive Auditor Race Result Signals Opportunity for Libertarians
OMAHA, NE November 5, 2010-Libertarian Party of Nebraska Chairman Gene Siadek issued the following statement:
"As we respond to the many congratulations from Libertarians, Non-Partisans, Democrats and Republicans on the impressive results in the Nebraska Auditors race, we look toward a future Nebraska where principled representation is a reality. For that reason, and because we firmly believe that Nebraska can do much, much better than to reelect the pro-government health care Ben Nelsen or elect the as-yet-to-announce pro-Jon Bruning Jon Bruning, we declare that our intent is to aggressively pursue the election of a Libertarian Senator to represent Nebraska in 2012.
The Sallach-Grace campaign for Auditor, which received nearly 85,000 votes and won 31 precincts, surprised many. It didnt surprise those of us that have been out talking to voters though. It is true that we are currently much smaller and not as well funded as our government insider opponents but, we feel our message of smaller government, lower taxes, and more freedom resonates with the electorate. As witnessed in the recent race for Auditor, and despite the incumbents right before the election audit of the Omaha Fire Department, our candidate held her own and proved that message does matter. Were going to take the Libertarian message to Nebraskans again in 2012.
Our goal is a return to accountable, representative government. Government that isnt ruled by one big party that runs amok for a few years then gets thrown out in favor of the next big party that follows the same basic strategy. Nebraskans deserve better.
