The Christian Liberty Party (CLP) is a minor third political party in the United States whose platform advocates social conservatism.[1] Its platform positions include the opposition to abortion, as well as opposition to property taxes;[1] it advocates "an educational system that respects individual freedom of conscience and reinforces the Biblical role and responsibility of the family as the educator of youth".[2] Ideologically, the Christian Liberty Party is aligned with the Christian right and Christian nationalism, viewing the United States as a Christian state and seeing "the Bible as a blueprint for political action".[3][4][5]
