Platform

Fiscal policy

Constitutionalists support reducing the role of the United States federal government through cutting bureaucratic regulation, reducing spending, and abolishing the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) in favor of a tariff-based revenue system supplemented by excise taxes. Its leaders are among the strongest advocates of abolishing most forms of federal taxation, especially the income tax. They view most current regular federal expenditures (such as those for healthcare, education, welfare, etc.) as unconstitutional under the intended strict interpretation of Article 1 Section 8 of the Constitution and the Tenth Amendment.

They support paying off the federal debt through a systematic elimination of further borrowing and what they consider unconstitutional programs and agencies such as the Department of Education, and the United States Department of Health and Human Services. They oppose foreign aid, asking that no further funds be appropriated for any kind of foreign aid program, and encourage the idea that United States participation in international lending institutions, such as the World Bank, International Monetary Fund, and the Export-Import Bank be terminated. They urge that all government subsidies, tax preferences, and investment guarantees to encourage U.S. businesses to invest in foreign lands be immediately terminated; and all debts owed to the United States by foreign countries, or foreign entities, be collected.

Foreign policy

Additionally, they favor a noninterventionist foreign policy. In such, they advocate reduction and eventual elimination of the role the United States plays in multinational and international organizations such as the United Nations, and favor withdrawal of the United States from most current treaties, such as NAFTA, GATT, and the World Trade Organization. The party takes paleoconservative positions in supporting protectionist policies on international trade. However, most of the party's membership supports the existence of the State of Israel as a springboard to the fulfillment of the Book of Revelation.^{[citation needed]} The foundation of the U.N.

The party also believes in exercising a tariff system to counteract the U.S.'s increasingly negative balance of trade.^[10] The system would levy additional import costs based directly on a country's production costs as compared to that of U.S. companies. This then would presumably give U.S. companies a better chance at competing with countries like Mexico and China who heavily underpay their workers, force such countries to pay their workers more reasonable wages, and counter the problem of offshoring in the U.S. job market. A tariff is a tax on foreign goods. ... The balance of trade encompasses the activity of exports and imports, like the work of this cargo ship going through the Panama Canal. ... Look up Levy in Wiktionary, the free dictionary. ... Offshoring describes the relocation of business processes from one country to another. ...

Immigration policy

The party opposes illegal immigration and also seeks a more restrictive policy on legal immigration. They demand that the federal government restore immigration policies based on the practice that potential immigrants will be disqualified from admission to the U.S. if, on the grounds of health, criminality, morals, or financial dependence, they would impose an improper burden on the United States, any state, or any citizen of the United States. Illegal immigration refers to immigration across national borders in a way that violates the immigration laws of the destination country. ...

Additionally, they oppose the provision of welfare subsidies and other taxpayer-supported benefits to illegal aliens, and reject the practice of bestowing U.S. citizenship on children born to illegal alien parents while in this country. They also reject any extension of amnesty to illegal aliens. The Constitution Party calls for the use of U.S. troops to protect the states against an influx of illegal immigrants.

Social policy

The party is pro-life and thus opposes euthanasia and abortion.^[11][12] However, the party does support States' right to administer the death penalty to those convicted of "capital crimes"^[13] which, it should be noted, are not necessarily limited to murder but usually equate to such in modern American society. Issues of discussion Pro-life is a term representing a variety of perspectives and activist movements in bioethics. ... Euthanasia (from Ancient Greek: ευθανασία, good death) is the practice of ending the life of a terminally ill person in a painless or minimally painful way, for the purpose of limiting suffering. ... Capital punishment, also referred to as the death penalty, is the judicially ordered execution of a prisoner as a crime, often called a capital offense or a capital crime. ...

Our support of a State's option to impose the death penalty is limited to those who have been convicted of capital crimes. This is consistent with protecting "innocent" life because the death penalty would only be applied to those who have proven to be a threat to innocent life.

It also opposes government recognition of homosexual unions, and believes state and local governments have the right to criminalize "offensive sexual behavior".^[14] Homosexuality refers to sexual interaction and / or romantic attraction between individuals of the same sex. ...

The party believes that charity is a private matter that the government has no business being involved in.^[15]

They support the right to bear arms and view the Second Amendment to the Constitution as securing broad rights to own guns. They are opposed to the USA PATRIOT Act.

The party opposes gambling as destructive and contributing to crime, as well as government's support of gambling organizations.^[16] The party also opposes pornography, believing the government needs to take a stand against it.^[17] While stressing the responsibility of individuals and corporations, the party maintains that government has responsibility in preserving standards of decency in America. The term gambling has had many different meanings depending on the cultural and historical context in which it is used. ... Porn redirects here. ...

The party opposes bilingual ballots and insists that those who wish to take part in the electoral process and governance of the US be required to read and comprehend basic English as a precondition of citizenship.^[18] They support English as the official language for all governmental business by the United States.

The party opposes federal anti-drug laws in keeping with the spirit of Article 1 Section 8 and Amendment 10, while maintaining that the federal government may have a role in limiting the import of drugs.^[19] The party opposes federal restrictions on, or subsidization of, medical treatments.^[20] Wikisource has original text related to this article: Article One of the United States Constitution Article One of the United States Constitution describes the powers of the legislative branch of the United States government, known as Congress, which includes the House of Representatives and the Senate. ...

Abortion stance and 2006 state disaffiliations

At the party's April national convention, the assembly voted not to disaffiliate Nevada, citing that affiliate's official position on the issue and national party policy against dictating the internal affairs (such as electing leaders) of any affiliate. They also made it more difficult to introduce a disaffiliation resolution.

In response, at least seven state parties (Alabama^[21], Arkansas^[22], New York^[23], Ohio, Oregon^[24], Maryland, Missouri^[25], and Montana) have formally voted to disaffiliate from the national party, believing it to have unacceptably compromised on the issue of abortion.

Criticisms
