“Be it resolved, that the Republican Party is the party of the open door. Ours is the party of liberty, the party of equality of opportunity for all and favoritism for none.” -- Preamble to the Rules of the Republican Party

Strong Families
Families intent on giving their children the hope of a
better tomorrow, the promise of a safe and secure

Limited Government
A government that promotes policies to unlock
individual potential and unleash economic growth.
Government that does not try to be all things to all
people.
|
Opportunity For All
The opportunity to chart one’s own course start a
business, chase a dream, or build a life regardless of
gender, race, or religion. |
Personal Responsibility
Individuals taking personal responsibility for their
own actions and a criminal justice system based on
this idea. With freedom comes responsibility.

The entrepreneurial spirit of the individual that continues to solidify Texas as a world economic
power. |

heritage and a clear vision for Texas’ future.
Leadership that is unwavering in the face of

Honest Compassion
A society assisting those in need rather than a
government trying to solve every problem by
simply throwing more money at it. |

An educational system that prepares children for
tomorrow’s workplace regardless of race, wealth or
geographical location. Education is the bedrock of
freedom and the gateway to opportunity.

Freedom
Freedom that is God given, affirmed by our
Founding Fathers, articulated in the Declaration of
Independence, and protected by the Constitution. |
