Welcome to the Somerset County Constitution Party of New Jersey

The Democrats and Republicans have squandered the Founders' legacy of liberty and justice under the Constitution. Countless government officials in the legislative, executive, and judicial branches of government ignore their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.

Our goals are to:
  • Restore the United States to "One Nation Under God"
  • Return to Constitutional, Limited Government
  • Protect the Inalienable Right to Life of All, including the Unborn and Infirm
  • Protect the Individual Right to Keep and Bear Arms
  • Restore National Sovereignty, including Withdrawal from the United Nations
  • Maintain a Strong National Defense
  • Repeal the Unconstitutional Income Tax
  • Stop All Unconstitutional Spending
  • Protect the Inalienable Rights of Liberty and Private Property
  • Abolish the Federal Reserve and Restore Constitutional Money
  • Promote Pro-family Policies
  • End Federal Subsidies for and control of Education and Welfare
  • Comprehensive Immigration Reform
  • Return Control over Elections to the People
  • Abolish Special Interest Entitlements (corporate welfare)


Our inspiration shall be the words of President James Monroe:
"Had the people of the United States been educated in different principles, had they been less intelligent, less independent, or less virtuous, can it be believed that we should have maintained the same steady and consistent career or been blessed with the same success? While, then, the constituent body retains its present sound and healthful state everything will be safe. They will choose competent and faithful representatives for every department. It is only when the people become ignorant and corrupt, when they degenerate into a populace, that they are incapable of exercising the sovereignty. Usurpation is then an easy attainment, and an usurper soon found. The people themselves become the willing instruments of their own debasement and ruin. Let us, then, look to the great cause, and endeavor to preserve it in full force. Let us by all wise and constitutional measures promote intelligence among the people as the best means of preserving our liberties."
