The '''American Redoubt''' movement is an [[conservative]] [[political]] migration initiative created by [[New York Times]] best-selling author [[James Wesley Rawles]] of [[The Survival Blog]]. The American Redoubt where [[citizen]]s are encouraged to pull up stakes and to move to a more open and [[free state]], a safe haven similar to a [[Galt's Gulch]] -- to [[vote with your feet | vote with their feet]] -- in the [[Intermountain West]] of [[Idaho]], [[Montana]], [[Wyoming]], [[Eastern Oregon]], and [[Eastern Washington]].

The '''American Redoubt''' movement is an [[conservative]] [[political]] migration initiative created by novelist [[James Wesley Rawles]] of [[The Survival Blog]]. The movement encourages [[citizen]]s to pull up stakes and to move to a more open and free location, a safe haven similar to a [[Galt's Gulch]] -- to [[vote with your feet | vote with their feet]].  This movement has targeted a multistate area in the [[Intermountain West]] of [[Idaho]], [[Montana]], [[Wyoming]], [[Eastern Oregon]], and [[Eastern Washington]] as a relocation zone.

One could say that the American Redoubt was "founded" when Montana became a State of these United States of America on November 8, 1889, just 1 year before Idaho and Wyoming.
+
The movement was launched when Rawles started advocating that libertarians relocate to the area on his SurvivalBlog.  Rawles and his followers do not track how many people have actually moved into the area in response to these efforts.
    
The American Redoubt concept was endorsed by former [[presidential candidate]] Rev. [[Chuck Baldwin]], who had recently relocated his entire extended family to western Montana. It also soon inspired the launch of a weekly survival-preparedness [[podcast]] by [[Christian]] [[libertarian]] journalist [[John Jacob Schmidt]], called [[Radio Free Redoubt]]<ref>http://www.radiofreeredoubt.com accessed December 4, 2014</ref>, as well as a volunteer network of [[amateur radio]] operators called [[AmRRON]] (the [[American Redoubt Radio Operators Network]]) established in 2012.
