MISSION STATEMENT
CHARTERS OF FREEDOM
“Charters of Freedom” is the term used to describe the three documents in early American history considered instrumental to its founding and philosophy. Those documents are the Declaration of Independence, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights.
The Declaration of Independence, written in 1776, announced a separation of power from Great Britain and expressed American ideals — “self-evident truths” — that all men are created equal, endowed by their creator with inalienable rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. In order to secure these rights, governments would be instituted among men, deriving its just powers from the consent of the governed.
The Constitution, written in 1787, defined the framework and powers of the federal government and relied on “We the People” to establish justice, ensure peace, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare of citizens, and secure the blessings of liberty.
The Bill of Rights, passed by Congress in 1789 and ratified by the states in 1791, protected the free exercise of religion, free speech, a free press, and the right to petition the government for rights. It guaranteed a right to self-defense, privacy, and due process under the law, among many other rights.
Wilkerson Public Affairs incorporates those philosophies, and its work serves to build that “more perfect union…”
