Center for Security Policy

Our mission is to secure America’s founding principles and freedom through forthright national security analysis and policy solutions.

Since the Center for Security Policy’s founding in 1988, we have challenged establishment orthodoxy and refused to sacrifice principles for expedience in Washington. Our work is rooted in the proven strategy of Peace Through Strength as applied to the needed 21st Century strategy of America First. Our security and freedom depend on a strong America and leaders who will use instruments of national power wisely to keep our nation out of unnecessary wars.

The Center for Security Policy is a nonprofit, nonpartisan, 501(c)(3) organization that educates policymakers, legislators, the media and the American public. We are funded by generous contributions from individuals, foundations, and corporations.
