Subject: [Lnc-business] Email Ballot 2017-11: Military Members
We have an electronic mail ballot.
Votes are due to the LNC-Business list by May 30, 2017 at 11:59:59pm Pacific time.
Sponsor: Hayes, Hewitt, Hagan, Mattson
Motion:
Whereas, We support the maintenance of a sufficient military to defend the United States against aggression and believe that the United States should both avoid entangling alliances and abandon its attempts to act as policeman for the world;
Whereas, We oppose any form of compulsory national service and recognize that many members of the military
were unjustly conscripted in the past;
Whereas, Most voluntary members of the military joined with the idea and/or goal of defending the United States
and, thereby, their property, families, and friends;
Whereas, The United States Military-Industrial-Complex has used many well-meaning military service members for
purposes other than defense against aggression and further involved them in foreign entanglements during attempts
to act as the world’s policeman; and
Whereas, Many current and former military service members are able to relate, identify, and speak out on the ways
in which the United States military mission has been expanded and corrupted beyond a legitimate role of defense
against aggression; now, therefore, be it;
Resolved, Present and former members of the military who give such unique and powerful voice to the libertarian
principles of peace and the non-initiation of force add great value to the Libertarian Party, and are welcomed as a
vital part of our membership.
-Alicia
