The New American is the flagship magazine and online publication of the John Birch Society. It produces news, commentary, and analysis from a conservative, anti-communist, and nationalist perspective, promoting limited federal government, strict constitutionalism, national sovereignty, and skeptical critiques of international institutions and mainstream media narratives.
Typically advances policies favoring limited federal power and states' rights, strict adherence to its interpretation of the U.S. Constitution, national sovereignty and opposition to international governance (e.g., United Nations), immigration restrictions, free-market economic policies, strong Second Amendment protections, and critiques of perceived federal overreach and globalism.
Primarily funded through John Birch Society membership dues and donations, magazine subscriptions and sales, and contributions from individual conservative supporters.
