Civil Liberties

The government should protect the value of individuals and their civil liberties. The government should not intervene in the private lives of individual citizens unnecessarily. Personal liberty and freedom from unwarranted governmental control or regulation should allow law abiding individuals to pursue their own desires as long as they are not causing harm to other people. There should be “less government, greater liberty and lasting prosperity for America.”

Governor Johnson does support gay and civil unions. However, he does not support gay marriage.
