Jo Jorgensen on Principles & Values

	Jo Jorgensen on Principles & Values

Coronavirus lockdown felt like "house arrest"

She has been outspoken about the U.S. response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In an interview with NPR, the candidate explained "The Libertarian administration first wouldn't have put everybody under house arrest. We believe in individual freedom and that people should be able to go about their lives as they choose." While the NPR host argued several governors and mayors wouldn't consider their stay-at-home orders a "house arrest," Jorgensen said it "felt like it" to the people staying at home.

Challenge cult of omnipotent state, defend individual rights

We challenge the cult of the omnipotent state and defend the rights of the individual.

We hold that all individuals have the right to exercise sole dominion over their own lives, and have the right to live in whatever manner they choose, so long as they do not forcibly interfere with the equal right of others to live in whatever manner they choose.
