Independent voters are now the third force in American politics.
To win, Republicans and Democrats now rely on independent voters to swing their way. Since neither party has enough base support, independent voters are in a powerful position.
It's time we organize.
The Independent Center’s mission is to be the resource hub and champion for the millions of Americans who believe we share common ground.
Through our research, events, and outreach we will highlight, promote, and ensure our politicians are held accountable for their promises to independent voters and all Americans.
We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to choose the best options for themselves, their families, and their communities.
We are tolerant of differences, and we understand that we need to treat others with empathy, trust and fairness—just as we want to be treated.
We want common-sense solutions that preserve and respect our freedoms and allow us to choose the best solutions to the problems our nation faces. We believe in equal opportunity and merit.
As the world’s largest economy and most vibrant democracy, America’s leadership has benefited its citizens throughout history. To secure our ambitions and dreams, we must strengthen our military and ensure its continued global advantage. Our economy and citizens' well-being are increasingly interdependent on strong international alliances and partnerships. The American Dream resonates worldwide, and we must actively work to uphold its ideals—empowering individuals and setting an example through the strength of our institutions and government.
Get InvolvedGrowth and abundance are essential to improving quality of life and raising our standard of living. By fostering innovation and expanding opportunities, we enable Americans to pursue their dreams and achieve their goals. To stay competitive, we must embrace modernization, encourage competition, and support individual ambition. A thriving economy—driven by productivity, job creation, and entrepreneurship—provides the resources necessary for a prosperous and self-sustaining nation.
Get InvolvedCivic responsibility is the foundation of strong, resilient communities and a thriving nation. Each of us has a role to play in shaping our society. Safe, vibrant communities, volunteerism, and philanthropy should be supported—not replaced—by distant and impersonal government bureaucracy. Our greatest strengths lie in our commitment to social tolerance, religious freedom, and cultural diversity.
Get InvolvedHuman dignity is rooted in the fundamental need for health, education, and safety at the individual, family, and community levels. Achieving this requires aligning economic growth, civic responsibility, and an effective government. Our future depends on a strong, healthy population and a sustainable environment that fosters opportunity and long-term prosperity.
Get InvolvedAn effective government is one that is smaller, focused, and fit-for-purpose. We must move away from an overburdened and overreaching bureaucracy that stifles progress. Addressing our mounting debt and deficit requires bold, strategic reforms to reimagine the role of government programs. A modernized, efficient government can enhance economic vitality and civic engagement while restoring public trust in our institutions.
