Description

This episode of the #citizenweb3 podcast features Eric Brakey from The FreeState Project

Eric Brakey, Executive Director of the Free State Project and former Maine State Senator, champions individual liberty, medical cannabis reform, and limited government. He believes New Hampshire is fertile ground for building a freer society based on the principle: “Don’t hurt people or take their stuff.”

The Free State Project is a movement to recruit 20,000 liberty-minded individuals to move to New Hampshire and create a stronghold for limited government and personal freedom. It aims to build a free society through peaceful activism, community-building, and principled resistance to state overreach.
