Declaration of Independence
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi claims that “Republicans could’ve passed a budget” on the eve of July 4th that would bring “us closer to the promise of the Declaration of Independence — but chose a Big Ugly Bill that throws millions off health care & guts our safety net.”
IN FACT, the founders of the U.S. didn’t sign a Declaration of Dependence to create a welfare state — but a Declaration of Independence to establish freedom. This groundbreaking document declares that governments exist to “secure” “Rights” that are “endowed” by our “Creator,” including “Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.”
