Episode Details

Welcome back to Voices of Liberty with host Sean Themea, powered by Young Americans for Liberty.

In this episode, Sean sits down with South Dakota State Representative Dylan Jordan, a young lawmaker who went from grassroots activism to elected office after deciding that if government was going to keep expanding, someone needed to step in and fight back directly.

Representative Jordan shares how the ideas of liberty first took hold during the Tea Party era, why the response to the coronavirus period pushed him into local activism, and how direct pressure on elected officials eventually led him to run for office himself.

The conversation explores his fight against taxpayer funded lobbying, his push to protect property rights from eminent domain abuse, his support for campus carry, and why too many politicians become cautious the moment they enter office. Jordan also explains what he learned while campaigning across one of South Dakota’s largest districts, why grassroots action still changes outcomes, and why liberty candidates must be willing to stay firm even when it makes them outsiders.

This is a conversation about conviction, courage, and refusing to lose your principles once you have power.
