Our Beliefs

A United Front

American leaders and citizens must declare their freedom from the anger and divisiveness that are ruining our politics and most importantly, our country.
A United Front.

We must recommit to the fundamental beliefs that have historically united Americans and provided a common understanding of who we are and where we hope to go.

Here are the enduring beliefs that guide No Labels– beliefs that we hope will once again guide the political and policy choices of our leaders.

Our Beliefs

We care about this country more than the demands of any political party.

Healthy disagreement is a good thing in our democracy. Principled debate leads to a better understanding on both sides and leads to better legislation and governance for the nation.

Political leaders need to listen more to the majority of Americans and less to extremists on the far left and right.

According to Gallup, only 16% of Americans consider themselves “very conservative” or “very liberal.” But in our polarized political climate, the most prominent voices are often found the farthest from the center.

We are grateful to live in a country where we can openly disagree with other people.

Our First Amendment right to voice our opinions, even if others don’t agree with them, is fundamental to who we are as Americans.

America isn’t perfect, but we love this country and would not want to live anyplace else.

The road to a more perfect Union isn’t a smooth one, and America has dark episodes in our history. But what carries forward is the love we have for the ideal of America, and the belief that things can, and will, get better if we work together to make them so.

We can still love and respect people who do not share our political opinions.

We are Democrats, Republicans, and independents, with different political opinions. Sometimes, we have serious disagreements over policies. But one thing we all share is a commitment to respect those differences, and to find areas of common ground so we can move the country forward.

We support, and are grateful for, the U.S. military.

At No Labels, we are unendingly thankful for our men and women in uniform who wake up every day to keep the world safe. The American people agree.

These beliefs are the foundation upon which we must rebuild our country. We seek to restore America’s faith that democracy remains the best means to bring out the good in every one of us, thus ensuring a brighter future for generations to come.
