[Lnc-business] Suggestions regarding LP outreach literature

[Brett Bittner]

My suggestions:

1. A broad economic liberty piece.
2. A broad civil liberties piece.
3. A broad piece regarding freedom "across the board."
4. 2nd Amendment piece (for gun show outreach)
5. Campus freedom piece (for on-campus outreach)
6. An "open for business" piece tailored toward the issues faced by small
business owners.
7. A Spanish language piece (possibly just a translation of #3 above)
8. A Spanish language piece specific to issues important in the Hispanic
community (immigration/freedom of movement, economic opportunity, "flex
your rights")
9. A "No Cronies" piece in opposition to cronyism

I'm sure I could come up with more, but I think these would be a good
start, covering many topics and offering some literature specific to some
of our most popular outreach activities.
