PASS LIBERTY LEGISLATION
500+ Bills passed
Over the past 5 years, we have been committed to winning on principle.
Since 2018, we have passed 522 pro-liberty bills and counting, and plan to pass 2,500 pro-liberty bills by 2030.
Our Liberty Legislators
Over 3,000 candidates from all over the country have completed our 7-page YAL Candidate Survey that covers issues from taxation to the Second Amendment to civil liberties – all seeking endorsement and support from our student army. Our legislators are coached and mentored as part of their membership in the Liberty Coalition. On an annual basis, Liberty Coalition members attend Hazlitt Policy Summits to receive training on the best tactics and model legislation to use at the capitol.
meet the coalitionAmerican Action Fund was there every step of the way, providing the support, encouragement, and sounding board that I needed to be effective in my first session. They are a real partner for liberty.
Dan Foreman
Idaho State SenatorWhile serving in the minority for the past three years, I have found the resources provided by Young Americans for Liberty to be a necessity in our ongoing fight against tyranny in Maine. Whether providing networking opportunities with fellow Hazlitt members, supplying education on liberty policies, or partnering together in practical efforts, YAL works to help liberty legislators succeed. This past spring, we brought together legislators and grassroots activists to pressure the University of Maine Chancellor to end the Covid-19 vaccine mandate, and our success was a direct result of that partnership.

Maine State RepresentativeOur Priority Issues
1. Education
The government-driven education system in America not only fails kids but also perpetrates generational mediocrity and an increasingly lost citizenry untethered to the founding principles that made this country great. Learn More
2. Economy
Free market capitalism led to incredible prosperity worldwide and in America. Sadly, there are some in our own country who want to abandon capitalism in favor of failed socialist and even communist economic models. Learn More
3. Healthcare
Our goal is to free patients and doctors from the grip of government at every level by passing healthcare freedom legislation in state capitols and empowering states to buck unconstitutional federal encroachments on our rights such as Obamacare expansion. Learn More
4. Civil Liberties
The rights of individuals are under attack. Whether it is the right to due process, protections against unreasonable searches and seizures or even the right to self-defense – governments seem to be on the war path to shred our Bill of Rights enumerated in the US Constitution. Learn More
5. Limited Government
The government should be smaller, spend less and play a lesser and lesser role in our lives. The path we are on today is not sustainable. Government is ballooning at every level; we must reign in the government to be subservient to the people. Individuals should drive change, not the government. Learn More
TRANSFORM YOUR STATE
FOCUS WHERE YOU CAN WIN
AAF focuses its efforts to pass liberty legislation in states where
transformational policy victories are possible. Over time, these victories will enable the states AAF targets to become Liberty Lighthouse States - beacons of liberty that create domino effects of freedom into other states.
