Gregory Matthew Lauer joined the Libertarian Party in January 2021 and became a volunteer for the Libertarian Party Historical Preservation Committee in April 2021. He currently lives in Fountain, CO.
Greg was born in Portsmouth, VA and became interested in current events and politics at a young age, even doing some volunteer work for the 1980 Reagan presidential campaign. Since then, he has served in the military (Army, April 1990 - December 1992), worked as a defense contractor, and dabbled in several small businesses in California, New Mexico, and Colorado.
In 2013, he was elected to the City of Fountain, CO city council, serving as a Council Member at Large, defeating a popular incumbent by a margin of eight votes. In 2017, he was unopposed in seeking a second term and in 2019, was selected by the other members of council to be the Mayor Pro Tem. He is term-limited in November 2021 and is considering running for other elected offices.
Although a long-time libertarian, he has been registered variously as a Republican, an Independent, or Unaffiliated. In January 2021, he registered as a Libertarian and formally joined the Libertarian Party and the Mises Caucus.
