Reform California, headed by Carl DeMaio, is working hard to repeal the latest gas tax. Knowing we already pay one of the highest gas tax rates in the nation, he and his organization collected nearly one million signatures to get this proposition on the ballot for November.  This is a big opportunity for the Libertarian Party to make some noise and align ourselves with others who share our concerns about California's legislators. Those in opposition are citing doom and gloom if this proposition passes, but it's another "tea party" situation. There's plenty of money to fix our roads; it's just not going where it should. Make a commitment to get this proposition passed. Go to the website for more information: gastaxrepeal.org. Get on the mailing list. Purchase a lawn sign. Slap on a bumper sticker or, with permission, put the sticker on a gas pump. Spread the word. Contribute. eform California, headed by Carl DeMaio, is working hard to repeal the latest gas tax.

If you're interested in promoting Libertarian policies, we NEED to elect Libertarians to office, or at the very least have US as the alternative to the "big 2" parties so people know there is a CHOICE.

Ottavio's Italian Restaurant was the setting for our Quarterly Business Meeting last month. Nearly 20 were in attendance to hear midyear officer reports and plan upcoming events. But the main focus was our guest speaker, member Aaron Starr, who spoke of his attempts to move his local (Oxnard) City Council toward financial accountability. Aaron's efforts for the past few years have been so successful and so impressive that the LPVC Executive Committee voted to present him with a Certificate of Appreciation for putting Libertarian principles into action. 

SAVE THE DATE: 6:30 PM, Thursday July 26. Members and Friends, let's all meet at Ottavio's Italian Restaurant, 1620 Ventura Blvd in Camarillo for our Quarterly Member Meeting and Summer Social. Aaron Starr, Oxnard's mover and shaker, will be our dinner speaker. 

Don't touch that dial! You ARE in the right place. This is the Libertarian Party of Ventura County's new website. We switched hosts and gave our website a new look. Things will be in transition for a while as we learn the new system and fine-tune the site to best suit our needs. Thank you for your patience. 

California’s Statewide Primary is here. Take the time and make the effort to vote. Here are LPVC recommendations based on our Platform.

Wow! Had a great time at the Wine Social this evening. Where were you? Maybe you came last year and thought “been there, done that,” but for me,  anytime I can enjoy a glass of wine with friends in the Libertarian Party, I know it will be good. We talked history and issues and current campaigns. We were lucky to have the state’s two main Libertarian candidates there: Nicholas Wildstar for Governor and Tim Ferreira for Lieutenant Governor. As I said, where were you? Nelson Lopez, our Vice Chair was kind enough to offer the Camarillo Custom Crush venue for our very own meeting place and, as usual, it was both comfortable and pleasant. Periodically getting together with fellow Libertarians helps us stay on track with our plans for the Party. In this atmosphere we can brainstorm on the best thing to do next. Donations also help feather the coffers. With all that to gain, won’t you please join us next time?
