自由意志主義共和黨人
自由意志主義共和黨人（libertarian Republican）是美國共和黨內支持自由意志主義政策並投票支持共和黨的人。據皮尤研究中心的調查顯示，12%的共和黨人認為他們自己是自由意志主義者[1]。自由意志主義共和黨人的規模比共和黨內的主流共和黨人、茶黨和基督教保守派等流派的規模要小[2]，但大於東北部溫和派共和黨人和新保守主義鷹派共和黨人。與其他共和黨內流派相比，自由意志主義共和黨人對共和黨的忠誠度較低。著名自由意志主義共和黨人包括密歇根州眾議員賈斯汀·阿馬什[3]、亞利桑那州參議員傑夫·佛雷克[4]、肯塔基州參議員蘭德·保羅、 猶他州參議員麥克·李 (美國政治家)[5][6]、愛達荷州州長巴奇·奧特[7][8]、演員克林·伊斯威特[9][10]、商人彼得·提爾等人[11][12]。
