Who We Are Our Mission
Conservatives for Property Rights is a coalition of conservative and libertarian organizations that stand for private property rights. We believe property rights are divinely endowed to human beings on account of their humanity, and private property is essential to the functioning of free enterprise, investing one's resources in discovery and creativity, and the exercise of ordered liberty.
The mission of Conservatives for Property Rights is to bring a unified voice of Movement Conservatives, with a renewed emphasis on private property in all its forms — physical, personal, and intellectual — as an unalienable right. CPR advocates for property rights in the context of federal matters, involving the national government under whose jurisdiction all Americans reside and to whose Constitution we look to secure these rights.
