Values

As Republicans, we believe in upholding the U.S. Constitution, fiscal responsibility, and accountability in all levels of government as well as strong family values. We further believe:

• The right of the individual to achieve their best, as long as the person respects the rights of others, is the source of our Nation's strength.
• Government exists to protect the freedom of opportunity in which each individual's creative ability can flourish.
• Government activities should be limited to those things that people cannot do at all, or cannot do well for themselves.
• The most effective government is government close to the people.
• Both government and society should assist those who cannot provide for themselves, but that every effort should be made to help them become self supporting, productive citizens with pride in their independence.
• Equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity belong to all, regardless of race, creed, age, sex, and national origin.
• The preservation of our Nation and the security of our citizens depend upon the Constitution, the laws and the courts, and that respect for them is the responsibility of every individual.
• Government is accountable for maintaining sound financial policies and a responsible economy. Individual rights, liberties, and properties are continually eroded when citizens are oppressed by excessive taxation, inflation, government waste and over regulation.
• Only a strong America can remain a free America. It is essential to maintain a strong national defense posture in order that we may, at all times, negotiate from a position of strength, not weakness, in our continuing efforts toward world peace and friendship.
• We believe quality education is vital to individual success and to a successful, economically competitive America.
