We further call for the banning of direct non-individual contributions to political campaigns. We also support prohibiting labor unions from contributing any portion of member dues to political campaigns without the express written permission of each member. The Constitution Party of Maine calls for repeal of limits upon terms of all elected officials, as each citizen should be allowed to vote for the candidate of their choosing. However, since the current term limits law was proposed by citizen's initiative and approved by the People, we shall ask the People to reconsider this proposal, once again, by general referendum. We affirm that the Law of the Creator defines marriage as the union between one man and one woman.
Parents are responsible for the nurture and admonition of their children.
We do not condone violent abuse of children but do believe that corporal punishment should not be outlawed by government. Criminal violent abuse of children should be punished under State of Maine law. However, parents should always be afforded constitutional guarentees of due process. We do not believe that the Department of Human Services should have authority to act as both judge and jury in the taking of children into protective custody. We call for the transfer of the task of child abuse law enforcement from the State to county and municipal officials.
