The Sound Money Defense League is focusing like a laser beam on restoring gold and silver to its historic role as America's constitutional money. As the nation's leader in constitutional sound money policy since 2014, the Sound Money Defense League works at the state and federal level to:

• Rally hundreds of thousands of concerned Americans to oppose the plans of the federal government and the central banks to debase the currency and devalue the purchasing power of American savers.
• Work with allies in elective office to introduce legislation to support sound money policies, such as auditing the nation's gold reserves, auditing the nation's central bank monopoly (otherwise known as the Federal Reserve), removing taxation on gold and silver, and otherwise supporting the recognition of sound money, i.e. gold and silver, as legal tender.
• Through aggressive legal and grassroots citizen action, expose and punish the global money managers running the Federal Reserve and the tax-and-spend politicians who undermine the U.S. dollar by supporting crushing debt, crony bailouts, and reckless money printing.
