As Republicans arm up for the fight to defend Texas and America, we must be cohesive and we must be clear about what we stand for. The Primary Election is our opportunity to select who will represent us for candidacy in the General Election. We need YOU to be engaged in who these representatives are going to be. This is also a good time to review our Party Principles and Platform. Your voice matters. Your vote makes the difference.
Republican Party of Texas Platform Principles
We, the 2012 Republican Party of Texas, believe in this platform and expect our elected leaders to uphold these truths through acknowledgement and action. We believe in:
-
Strict adherence to the original intent of the Declaration of Independence and U.S. and Texas Constitutions.
-
The sanctity of human life, created in the image of God, which should be protected from fertilization to natural death.
-
Preserving American and Texas Sovereignty and Freedom.
-
Limiting government power to those items enumerated in the U.S. and Texas Constitutions.
-
Personal Accountability and Responsibility.
-
Self-sufficient families, founded on the traditional marriage of a natural man and a natural woman.
-
Having an educated population, with parents having the freedom of choice for the education of their children.
-
Americans having the right to be safe in their homes, on their streets, and in their communities and the unalienable right to defend themselves.
-
A free enterprise society unencumbered by government interference or subsidies.
-
Honoring all of those that serve and protect our freedom.
