Why should I be a Republican?

Republicans believe in founding principles. We believe that our nation's strength comes from God and our reliance on Him. We believe that America is an exceptional country and our Constitution is an inspired document. We believe in equal rights, justice, and opportunity, inalienable rights, state and citizen sovereignty, fiscal responsibility, and limited government. We strive to put these principles and beliefs into actions as we work with elected officials and the people they represent for the best solutions. We offer a place where principles become actions.
