Founding Principles

The principles upon which this country was founded remain in the spirit of Americans everywhere.

Many men and women across our country still believe in limited government, self-reliance, and individual liberty. Our Founders understood this.

Thomas Jefferson was right that, in the end, men will govern themselves without a master. But SAFIG understands that this will not happen without effort. To achieve this goal, we must be willing to fight against government overreach and be active in our support of The People against the machinery of bureaucracy. People must be free to pursue the dreams that made our country great and return it to greatness again.
