Limited Government. Unlimited Opportunities.

We are all capable of contributing to the wellbeing of our community in our own unique way.

Our Mission is to empower Hispanics to reach their full potential by educating and mobilizing our community to advance policy change that expands freedom and opportunity so they can achieve their American dream.

Driving Progress for Latinos in the U.S.

LIBRE brings people together to make a positive impact in the areas that matter most to Hispanics in this country – a strong economy and good jobs, access to affordable healthcare, safer communities, and quality education for our children.

Whether in Washington D.C. or your neighborhood, we work with lawmakers, thought leaders, and engaged community members to vigorously advocate for freedom-minded solutions. We empower latinos to contribute to thriving communities, achieve their American dream, and endow the next generation with opportunities to succeed that weren’t available to us in our homeland.

Vive tu American Dream.
