- The American Freedom Agenda (AFA) was a United States organization established in 2007 by disaffected libertarian-oriented conservatives demanding that the Republican Party return to its traditional mistrust of concentrated government power. It described itself as "a coalition established to restore checks and balances and civil liberties protections under assault by the executive branch." It was founded by Bruce Fein (chairman), Bob Barr, David Keene and Richard Viguerie. The ten points of the American Freedom Agenda pledge were:
* No military commissions except on the battlefield.
* No evidence extracted by torture or coercion.
* No detaining citizens as unlawful enemy combatants.
* Restoring habeas corpus for suspected alien enemy combatants.
* Prohibiting warrantless spying by the National Security Agency in violation of law.
* Renouncing presidential signing statements.
* Ending secret government by invoking State Secrets Privilege.
* Stopping extraordinary rendition by the United States by the U.S.
* Stopping threats to prosecuting journalists under the Espionage Act of 1917.
* Ending the listing of individuals or organizations as terrorists based on secret evidence. (en)
