Medical decisions are a sacred choice between us and the medical professionals we choose.
Both the Provo and Utah County covid orders have been repealed so we are not currently working on a referendum.  However, we want to prepare to stop any future unlawful mandates that arise by compiling a database of all Utahns who would be willing to sign a future petition for a state, Utah County, or Provo referendum.  There is a small window of time to collect signatures in-person, which is very time-consuming, so we need to be able to email and contact those people quickly next time and efficiently gather signatures and volunteers to meet the deadline, or soon enough to stop the ordinance before it expires.

In order to sign a referendum you need to fill out a voter registration form or register to vote online at https://vote.utah.gov (this is the best option).   

We are meeting weekly for a Freedom Dinner & Discussion where we work with government leaders, freedom group leaders, and the public to discuss plans to stop government overreach and preparations for potential emergency situations that may arise, as well as develop networks with local neighbors to help each other in such times.  To find out the details of when and where these meetings are, please email [email protected].  To see a list of our evolving plans, please see a page coming soon.

OUR ARGUMENT FOR MEDICAL FREEDOM:

CONSTITUTIONALITY
It is unconstitutional for the government to mandate medical treatment of any kind, under any circumstances on any individual or their dependents, even if there is legislation that claims to have created this power.
In Butler County v. Wolf (3) (2020 US Federal Court) ruled similar Pennsylvania’s COVID 19 mandates unconstitutional. Violating the First Amendment and due process clause of the 14th amendment. Judge William Stickman IV held: “Even in an emergency, the authority of government is not unfettered. The liberties protected by
the Constitution are not fair-weather freedoms — in place when times are good but able to be cast aside in times of trouble. There is no question that this country has faced, and will face, emergencies of every sort. But the solution to a national crisis can never be permitted to
supersede the commitment to individual liberty that stands as the foundation of the American experiment. The Constitution cannot accept the concept of a ‘new normal’ where the basic liberties of the people can be subordinated to open-ended emergency mitigation measures.  Rather, the Constitution sets certain lines that may not be crossed, even in an emergency.”

LACK OF SCIENTIFIC CONSENSUS
Contrary to the Provo City Council’s claims, there is far from a scientific consensus among
healthcare professionals about the efficacy and necessity of face covering to protect against
Covid-19. For every expert the Provo City Council cites, there are recognized experts that
provide adequate evidence to support the opposite of the City Council’s claims.

MEDICAL FREEDOM
Such a sacred responsibility as our family’s healthcare decisions is between us and the medical
professionals we choose, not the government.
 
If we each do as much as we can we can save freedom, even if there are only a few who are brave enough to stand up.   The Revolutionary war that created the freedom we all enjoy was won by a minority!  Thank you for fighting for our freedoms.

We have a private Facebook group www.facebook.com/groups/utahnsformedicalfreedom but be aware that facebook is shutting down many groups that share differing opinions than those held by facebook's staff about controversial issues, so we will likely be adding other social media platforms soon.

Also, please join the group "Peoples Rights," a group that has supported our efforts by spreading our message.  Text the word Rights to 80123 or go to www.peoplesrights.org and become part of the movement of those who believe IT’S THE DUTY OF FREE PEOPLE TO DEFEND THEIR NEIGHBORS RIGHTS.

Proper Role of Government

 When government oversteps their proper role and creates health mandates that are overbearing to individuals and burdensome to businesses and uses forced compliance through civil penalties and the use of law enforcement, the legal voters of  Utah have the responsibility to require these ordinances to be submitted to the voters through a referendum or other means to stop such overreach of power.  As U.S. District Judge William Stickman IV said, "good intentions toward a laudable end are not alone enough to uphold governmental action against a constitutional challenge. Indeed, the greatest threats to our system of constitutional liberties may arise when the ends are laudable and the intent is good—especially in time of emergency."
