Seven Villages. One Town.
We stand for
The Constitutional Republic. Law and Order. The American Way.
For the neighbors who work hard, raise their families and pay the bills, and wonder if anyone in power still hears them:
You are not forgotten here.

One of Our Own · Barnstable County Commissioner
Adam Hogue
He lives in West Hyannisport. He is a member of this committee. On November 3 his name is on every ballot in town, for Barnstable County Commissioner.
“I oppose a county-wide property tax and increasing the real estate transfer tax because those proposals would make it even more expensive to own, buy, or sell a home.”
“I proudly served our country for 20 years, both on active duty and in the Reserves, before retiring.”
Meet him in town: Candidate Night, West Barnstable, Tuesday, October 20, 6:30 pm, 2049 Meeting House Way.

The Town of Barnstable · Est. 1639
Thirteen precincts. One Town Council. The decisions made at 367 Main Street land on every household in seven villages. We think the people who pay for them should be heard first.
