'''Caryn Ann Harlos''' is the current Libertarian Party [[National Secretary]] (LNC terms 2018-2020, 2020-2022, and 2022-2024) and former [[LNC Region 1 (2016-2018)|Region 1]] Representative on the [[Libertarian National Committee]] as well as the current Secretary of the [[Libertarian Party of Douglas County]] Colorado, since 2020. She is also the Chair of the [[National Historical Preservation Committee|Libertarian Party Preservation Committee]] since 2017,  and was the [[National Convention 2022]] Platform Committee Chair for the [[National Convention 2018|2018]], [[National Convention 2020|2020]], [[National Convention 2022|2022]] national conventions, Bylaws and Rules Committee Chair for the [[National Convention 2024|2024]] national convention, Communications Director for the [[Libertarian Party of Colorado]], Secretary for the [[Libertarian Party of Colorado]], and Colorado State Coordinator with the [[Radical Caucus|Libertarian Party Radical Caucus]].  She is also a [[Life Member]] of the Libertarian Party and is married to [[Wayne Harlos]] who is the former of the [[Libertarian Party of Colorado]] and the current multi-term chair of the [[Libertarian Party of Douglas County]] Colorado which they helped revive in 2014 after over a decade of dormancy.  Harlos is a registered Parliamentarian with the National Association of Parliamentarians and often volunteers her professional services to Libertarian organizations as well as working professionally in that field along with her paralegal career. In her fifties, Harlos was diagnosed with Asperberger's Syndrome (part of the autism spectrum).<ref>The official diagnosis was high-functioning autism spectrum disorder, but Harlos believes the prior separation of "Asperberger's" and other manifestations of autism to be more helpful.</ref>

=Ideology=

Harlos is an ideological anarchist/voluntaryist who has become distinguished for presentations on the [[Dallas Accord]] and the [[Statement of Principles]].  She is also widely known as a pro-life Libertarian having authored "Abortion and the Libertarian Conscience."<ref>[http://independentpoliticalreport.com/2015/08/caryn-ann-harlos-abortion-and-the-libertarian-conscience/ Independent Political Report, August 25, 2016]</ref> though has since changed her mind on the desirability of the deletion of the abortion plank, now believing that it was best to have remained as the plank said nothing about rights, but practically recognized this is an issue that is best dealt with by culture changes to value life rather than government force.  She is also a pacifist, but this is for religious, rather than political, reasons.  She is politically involved to bring about peaceful change and believes in a future where everyone can have what they want - those who voluntarily want a lot of government can have it, and those that don't, aren't forced to.

She has done multiple presentations about Libertarian anarchy:

==Party Caucuses<ref>Once elected as LNC Secretary in 2018, Harlos resigned from the Radical Caucus due to a personal position at the time that no national officers should be members of any caucus.  She remained caucus-free with a philosophy of friendships with all, entangling alliance with none until her now-voided removal in September 2021.  Part of the alleged evidence used against her was her friendliness with the [[Libertarian Party Mises Caucus]], so she conditionally changed her position stating that when people were using bad faith tactics to isolate people friendly with caucuses, there is protection in numbers and loosely quoted Sansa Stark "The lone wolf dies, but the pack stays alive." Though not a member until September 2021, Harlos had been working closely with the [[Libertarian Party Mises Caucus]] at that time admiring their work ethic and accomplishments.  She joined in September 2021 after realizing that in a time of irrational factionalism, merely being friendly brands you as a member and a target, so she might as well join and show support to those who have supported her.  Further, the hostility in the Party in 2021 made being a "lone wolf" very risky and open to vulnerability. She joined the [[Libertarian Party Mises Caucus]] in November 2021 and re-joined the [[Libertarian Party Radical Caucus]] in February 2022.  She subsequently resigned both in July 2024 reverting back to freedom as a neutral.</ref>==

== "Ballot Selfie" Lawsuit==

[[File:Harlos 2016 TVBroadcast.png|thumb|left|On local TV news coverage of "ballot selfie" lawsuit]]

In 2016, Harlos and several other defendants sued the Colorado Secretary of State, State Attorney, and Denver Attorney General over a Colorado statute forbidding the disclosure of the contents of one's own ballot.<ref>"[http://www.coloradoindependent.com/161836/colorado-ballot-selfie-libertarian-free-speech-lawsuit How a Libertarian plans to challenge Colorado’s ‘ballot-selfie’ law]", Colorado Independent, October 21, 2016</ref>  This came in the wake of multiple similar suits, including a successful overturning of a similar law in New Hampshire.<ref>"[http://lpedia.org/File:FPPNews_2016-11_V7-N11.pdf Ballot Selfie Ban Violates Free Speech Rights]", "FPP News, Volume 7, Issue 11"</ref> View a copy of the [[Media:CO Lawsuit 2016-10-25 Complaint Harlos.pdf|Complaint]] and the [[Media:CO Lawsuit 2016-11-04 Order Harlos.pdf|Order for Injunctive Relief]] as well as a [[Media:CO Statute 1-13-712.png|copy of the Colorado statute]] that was overturned.

<br clear="left">

==Close the Back Door==

At the [[National Convention 2018|2018 national convention in New Orleans]], Harlos successfully organized an initiative to [[Close the Back Door|protect the Statement of Principles]].

==Whistleblower Activities==

===Threats, Soft Sexism, Wokeism===

*[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fbFI6_lXWTc&t=2s The LP Needs to Check Itself Before it Wrecks Itself]
*[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQMDBjSJKxI The Libertarian Party Needs to Hear a Who]

===The National Party's Tepid Response to the COVID Regime===

Harlos was stridently vocal about what she and others saw to be a tepid-at-best response of the national Party to the depredations on human rights in response to COVID.  When even the tame suggestion of forming an advisory committee was shot down, she said that if the national Party can't respond to this issue, it might as well disband as useless.

===New Hampshire Coup Attempt===

[[File:NH-2021 Coup-Meme.jpg|thumb|right]]

Harlos was prominent in bringing the issues in the [[Attempted Coup June 2021 of the Libertarian Party of New Hampshire]] to light to general Party membership after which she was the subject of several attempts by other LNC members to remove her from the LNC which she considers to be retaliation against a whistleblower - particularly considering her comments to the LNC after meeting adjournment [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2EnRs0AU6g condemning their inaction].  During that time, she received more messages of support from Party members since the time that the "Contact the LNC" form was put on the website in 2018.  This chain of events led to an invitation to a speaking spot on bold Libertarian messaging.<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHiFoIAtljU Bold Libertarian Messaging – Don’t Be Afraid! @ PorcFest 2021]</ref><ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WK6GU22xDOE Porcfest- These are the libertarians that matter, not shady party leadership]</ref>

===Delaware Coup Attempt===

And like with New Hampshire, she exposed that the LNC was utterly incapable of handling this when presented, see [[Libertarian Party of Delaware Leadership Controversy 2021]]

===Massachusetts Purge Attempt===

See [[Libertarian Association of Massachusetts Leadership Controversy 2022]]

==2021 Suspension From the Libertarian National Committee (Later Determined to be Null and Void)==

''See:'' [[In re: The Suspension of Caryn Ann Harlos - LNC Secretary-in-Exile]]

At the [[National Convention 2022]], she was re-elected with over 70% of the vote and the delegates ruled that her prior removal was null and void due to the denial of basic due process rights to an officer and therefore a continuing breach of the bylaws and that she never ceased to be LNC Secretary.

==2024 Unsuccessful Removal From the Libertarian National Committee (Overturned by Judicial Committee)==

<em>See:</em> [[In re: The Suspension of Caryn Ann Harlos]]

Once Harlos departed from the Mises Caucus (according to her account), and opposed their support including allegedly by the Party Chair, retaliatory events unfolded.  Harlos' position is to do always do what she feels is right despite costs of whom she though were friends and describes her time in the Caucus as cult-like (leadership, not rank and file) which the Caucus disputes strongly.  She describes what was sold as single issue coalitions as a wholesale selling out of the Party to Republican interests.  She and [[Beth Vest]] had separately filed derivative lawsuits<ref> [https://reason.com/2024/10/10/libertarian-party-secretary-files-lawsuit-to-remove-party-chair-angela-mcardle/ Reason Online: Libertarian Party Secretary Files Lawsuit To Remove Party Chair Angela McArdle]</ref>   against [[Angela McArdle]] as nominative Plaintiffs standing in the shoes of the non-profit.  Just prior to the resignation of [[Angela McArdle]] in the midst of allegations of financial misconduct<ref>[https://reason.com/2025/02/04/libertarian-party-gets-new-national-chair-after-angela-mcardles-surprise-resignation/ Reason Online: Libertarian Party Gets New National Chair After Angela McArdle's Surprise Resignation]</ref> (the Party is investigating, these remain allegations), she tried to remove Harlos once again but resigned before she could complete the attempt.

===Tutorials===

Harlos also creates tutorials on how to participate in various Libertarian Party activities.

==Radio Show Hostess==

Beginning October 2021 and ending about one year later, Harlos became host of a Saturday afternoon radio show on 1360 KHNC in Weld County, Colorado.  The show bears the same name as her YouTube Channel, Pink Flame of Liberty.

==LNC Involvement==

In 2015, Harlos was inspired to get involved on a national level after researching and becoming deeply interested in the schism that then existed in Oregon between the [[Libertarian Party of Oregon]] and the PAC also calling itself the Libertarian Party of Oregon.  She ran and won the race for Region 1 Representative at the [[National Convention 2016]] against incumbent [[Norm Olsen]].  

===2016 Run for Region 1 Representative===

Harlos ran for Region 1 representative at the [[National Convention 2016]] and won in a close three-way race against incumbent [[Norm Olsen]] and fellow challenger [[M Carling]].  [[Steven Nielson]] won Region 1 Alternate.  Harlos' first motion as Region 1 alternate was to preserve and protect LPedia.  By the end of this term, the [[Historical Preservation Committee]] was set up and the records archive moved to Parker Colorado under her direction.

===2018 Run for LNC Secretary===

On February 28, 2018, Harlos announced her [[National Convention 2018|run for LNC Secretary]]<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/groups/186169278803875/permalink/199383900815746/ Facebook Announcement]</ref> and launched her campaign website in March 2018.<ref>[https://www.pink.vote Pink is the New Gold]</ref>. Her campaign is managed by [[Sarah Daggers]].  She won against incumbent [[Alicia Mattson]] and fellow challenger [[Jeff Wood]] on the first ballot with 56.621% of the votes.  Harlos' campaign was run with zero negative campaigning and in fact, she was cited by [[Alicia Mattson]] in Mattson's campaign materials as someone who called Ms. Mattson "one of the best secretaries" she has ever worked with.

Popular Libertarian evangelist [[Larry Sharpe]] [https://wwww.youtube|?v=jMggHA40YWs&t endorsed Harlos for this position].

===2020 Run for Re-election as LNC Secretary===

At the second sitting of the [[National Convention 2020]], Harlos won re-election to LNC Secretary on the first round with 51.80% of the vote again [[Evan McMahon]] (46.85%) and [[Dave Jones]] (8.31%).  However, it is noted that there was a prior motion to suspend the rules for both the Vice-Chair and Secretary race to conduct both by approval voting and in one round only regardless if anyone received a majority.  However, both [[Caryn Ann Harlos]] and [[Ken Moellman]] did win their races with a majority.  Harlos credits her win to her dedication to stand up for the delegates who wanted an in-person convention in opposition to then-Chair [[Nicholas Sarwark]] as she had a very healthy majority of support from the in-person delegates despite both her and Evan being present in person while she had had only a slight lead with the remote delegates.  Harlos believes this is due to misinformation that she did not support any remote attendance, which she did, and voted for it.  In fact, less than fifteen delegates opposed remote person when the vote came up on the floor.  Like [[Alicia Mattson]] last term, Mr. McMahon was a very competent and worthy competitor.  Because two entirely different voting methods were used, it is impossible to statistically compare the two races, particularly since so many delegates reported voting for both Harlos and McMahon, and it is unknown who would have been chosen had they been only able to to choose one.  In the same way, it is impossible to know what effect that late entrance of [[Dave Jones]] had and whether his votes included either Harlos or McMahon or were for him alone. <ref>Unlike past years, the only records are the tally sheets and not the individual ballots so this post-convention analysis cannot be done as it could have been in years past.</ref>  Mr. McMahon accepted her offer to be her unofficial Assistant Secretary, a role that she has been working on making something official and permanent, similar to the Assistant Treasurer. However, his life circumstances changes, and he could not assume that role.

Harlos produced an informational video for her re-election bid:

===2022 Run for Re-Instatement as LNC Secretary===

For more detail about this period of time and the voiding of the removal of Harlos, see [[In re: The Suspension of Caryn Ann Harlos - LNC Secretary-in-Exile]].  She raised approximately $20,000 in support.

Harlos was re-elected at the [[National Convention 2022]] with %70.82 of the vote over the LNC's chosen interim replacement's %24.39 of the vote (694 votes v. 239 votes). Note: The two write-in "abstentions" should not have been counted so that the percentage of win was actually %70.96.

==Inclusion in 50th Anniversary Tribute Book to [[John Hospers]]==

*Unearthing and Preserving . . .”
*An Essentially Libertarian View of Abortion is Neither Conservative Nor Progressive

==Notable Other Accomplishments==

Harlos is a paralegal with over thirty years of experience. She has also authored a book on Christian eschatology that had been used as a reference work in a class at Liberty University and authored two chapters in the 50th Anniversary tribute book to [[John Hospers]].  She has appeared in radio shows and podcasts all over the world on this topic and was a guest lecturer at Appalachian State University.

She has also been involved in street activism no matter where she was on the political spectrum at the time.  Also, there *might* have been a double reference to Harlos and Fortnight on a 2018 episode of South Park.  Considering the libertarian position of the creators, it is possible.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/LibertarianPartyUSA/comments/abgfoz/caryn_ann_harlos_made_an_appearance_on_south_park/ Caryn Ann Harlos made an appearance on South Park this season]</ref>

==Issues Advocacy==

In May 2019, after some profound life struggles, Harlos was diagnosed with high-functioning ASD (autism spectrum disorder, f/k/a/ Aspberger's Syndrom) which has sparked in interest (of course it has!) in ASD issues in the Libertarian Party and bullying surrounding same. Caryn Ann was also diagnosed as a young adult with Obsessive Compulsion Disorder which she puts to good use for liberty. She believes that some of the personality conflicts that are infamous in the Party are due to misunderstandings based on neurodivergence.

Harlos speaks out regularly on how the "war on opioids" is victimizing pain patients and has been an advocate for kratom.<ref>Also see [https://www.westword.com/news/kratom-ban-in-denver-ripped-by-libertarian-party-of-colorado-9908252 Kratom: Libertarian Party of Colorado Rips Denver Human Use Ban]</ref>
