What “Republican” means to me

February 1, 2026

I believe

in equal access to funding and a competitive business environment without burdensome regulation.

in people’s individual ability to manage their lives and affairs;

people are by nature generous and willing to share their good fortune with those in need;

a constitutional republic is the form of government most compatible with individual freedom, rights, safety, and security;

in the separation of government authority and the balance ensured by equal degrees of power;

a constitutional republic protects people’s interests only when enumerated powers are retained by the officials elected to represent the people;

in the rule of law with a constitution as the basis for all other laws;

fewer dollars under government control allow individuals to spend at their discretion;

that freedom of association includes the right to determine the path to a child’s education;

private property ownership confers upon the lawful holder all rights to use real and personal property for any legal purpose;

each generation must be a responsible steward of sustainable environmental conservation;

each person entrusted with responsibility or authority is accountable for their actions and behavior;

in intellectual and tangible property rights;
