Lew Rockwell.com
This is perhaps the best non-"mainstream media" website for news and op-eds from a limited-government perspective. It provides a daily-changing lineup of articles by some of the foremost libertarian writers, as well as interesting pieces that you definitely will not find at the Associated Press.

Foundation for Economic Education
FEE was founded in 1946 to study and advance the "first principles" of freedom: the sanctity of private property, individual liberty, the rule of law, the free market, and the moral superiority of individual choice and responsibility over coercion. They publish “The Freeman,” a monthly magazine worth subscribing to.

The Ludwig von Mises Institute

It is named for the one of the most notable economists and social philosophers of the twentieth century.

Libertarian Party of Iowa
This is the site for the Iowa branch of the Libertarian Party. They are pretty small and not very active, but they did win a legal case, with the ICLU and the Green Party, to allow Iowa residents to register as third-party members (Iowa was one of only two states that restricted party registration to the two major parties).

Campaign for Liberty
This is where Ron Paul continues his 30 + years of effort to promote and defend the great American principles of individual liberty, constitutional government, sound money, free markets, and a noninterventionist foreign policy, by means of educational and political activity.

The Free State Project
The Free State Project is a fascinating attempt to create a libertarian society by convincing 20,000 pro-liberty activists to move to New Hampshire.
