AMERICAN Unity Party
UNITY PARTY OF COLORADO

About Unity

As members of the Unity Party we focus on finding solutions that move our state and country forward rather than focusing on our differences.

WE do not attack or vilify other cultures, religions, ethnicities, or spiritual practices. We choose conversation not conflict. The Unity Party does agree with a good political dialogue which includes constructive criticisms of other parties on issues that affect the people.

WE strive to strike the proper balance between personal freedom and empowering and securing our communities.

PLATFORM

I.  BALANCED BUDGET AMENDMENT  

Unity supports the passage of a balanced budget amendment in the interests of the nation’s fiscal and economic health. Any short-term stimulative benefits gained by deficit spending are outweighed by the long-term damage that spending inflicts on the economy. It is time to stop spending our children’s inheritance, and it’s time for the state legislatures to apply to Congress for a new Constitutional Convention to pass this and other amendments, per article V of the United States constitution.

Our Principles

People Before Party

Politics can no longer be about taking sides. We have to come together to create real solutions.

Everyone's Voice Matters

WE are open to hearing and desire our beliefs and ideas to be challenged so they can become even more inclusive.

Freedom for the Individual

WE maximize freedom for the individual AND security for the Society to minimize suffering.

Security for the Society

We source ideas from a diverse collective to maximize our impact. We want to hear from all sides to come up with the best solutions.

Our Mission

We want to engage every single human in cross-cultural conversation at every level: personal relationships, families, townships, counties, states, nations, and the globe.

 We want people who do not typically talk to one another to start a conversation and practice listening to many other points of view.

We want to focus on the issues that threaten humanity and show how focusing on these issues can bring us closer together as a global family.  We want active participation from all walks of life in these conversations.
