DownsizeDC.org
DownsizeDC.org is comprised of Small Government visionaries who have a unique and powerful approach to constrain government abuse (.pdf). From their mission statement:
We believe the federal government has grown too centralized, too intrusive, and too expensive. We believe in constitutional limits, smaller government, civil liberties, federalism, and low taxes. We want to end laws and programs that don’t work, cause harm, and violate the Constitution. We want to restore the full force of the 9th and 10th amendments, which reserve most social functions to the people and the states.”
