ABOUT NTF
Our
History
Dedicated conservatives founded Nebraska Conservatives for Freedom in 1982 to
educate and inform Nebraskans and our elected officials that conservative
free enterprise solutions exist to remedy and solve the political, economic,
and social problems of our state and nation. In order to achieve
these objectives, we monitor the U.S. Congress, Nebraska State Legislature,
and local governments and rate our elected officials according to their votes
on fiscal, regulatory, and other legislation.
We educate
and train our members to responsibly carry out projects in activities of
their choice. Our Taxpayer Watchdog activities include President
Watch, Congress Watch, Legislative Watch, City/County Watch, Education
Monitor I (public schools), Education Monitor II (state universities), and
Telecommunications Watch. Other activities are Gun Owners Rights
and Illegal Immigration.
Over the
years, NCF was affiliated with Citizens for Reagan and Citizens Against
Government Waste. Currently, we are affiliated with the National
Taxpayers Union, Hands off the Internet, and National Association of
Neighborhood Schools.
On January 1, 2000, we changed our organization name to Nebraska Taxpayers for Freedom,
to better reflect our emphases and objectives. We are not the
usual rigid ideologues so many people associate with fiscal
conservatism. We are an easy-going, fun bunch of
people. You are always welcome to attend our meetings and
activities and participate in our projects.
