About Us

We Surround Them Frederick is a gathering of private citizens, based in Frederick, Maryland, who are concerned with the direction our elected (and unelected) “representatives” are taking us. We believe that the individuals who started our nation provided the answers we need to solve today’s problems within the documents they crafted. We believe that every American should always ask, "By what authority does the constitution provide...?"

Founded in March of 2009, we are a non-partisan group and believe that both major parties are a large part of the problems we face today. We believe that these parties have proven to serve their own interests instead of the interests of the people. We welcome anyone to the group regardless of past or current political affiliation. We also welcome (and encourage!) current and aspiring politicians to join the group. The only requirement is they must check their politician hat at the door and enter the group as a citizen.

The spirit of the group is to bring us all back to the place we were on September 12, 2001. The day after America was attacked we were not obsessed with Red States, Blue States or political parties. We were united as Americans – mainly as people who chose to simply do what was right.
