Conservative Core Values
ARTICLEI
--Individual Liberty
We believe that our nation was founded on religious freedom is strengthened by faith, private property rights and God endowed liberties. ARTICLE II—Sanctity of Lide
Sanctity of Life We believe in the sanctity of life, that life begins at conception, and the importance of extending dignity and worth to all members of our society regardless of age. ARTICLE III--Family
We believe that the strength of our nation, state, and community lies with the family unit that consists of the marriage of one man and one woman. ARTICLE IV--Education
We believe that the best education allows parents, not the state, to have control over educational options regardless of geographic or socio-economic background. We will expect that education be given the priority it deserves and work to upgrade our education system so citizens can be self-reliant and prosperous. ARTICLE V—Economic Policy
We believe in free enterprise with less taxation and limited government that is business-friendly. Encouraging individual initiative rather than wealth redistribution will continue to bring our nation opportunity, economic growth, and prosperity for all citizens. The free market is more efficient than the government. ARTICLE VI—Ficsal Responsibility
We believe government should balance the budget by reducing spending not raising taxes, remove excessive taxation, eliminate unproductive agencies and abolish needless bureaucratic regulations. We believe tax policies that discriminate against families undermine our society. ARTICLE VII—State and National Defense
We believe that Americans value and should preserve our military strength, work to extend peace, freedom and human rights. We will honor our soldiers who give of themselves and their lives to preserve our freedoms. ARTICLE VIII—Limited Government
We believe that the proper role of government is to uphold the Constitution and only critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations. The best government is that which governs least. We encourage term limits at all levels of government and advocate campaign finance reform to level the playing field for all candidates. ARTICLE IX--Environment
We believe that our state and nation have been blessed with abundant natural resources. It is our responsibility to use, develop and protect these resources as good stewards. We support reducing our dependence on foreign oil. ARTICLE X—Constitutional Government
We believe in our Constitution and Bill of Rights. Our government has neither the right nor responsibility to control every aspect of our lives. We will encourage accountability by frequent contact with public officials, staying abreast of voting records and ask that officials listen to the people. We will provide strong support for those candidates and elected officials who subscribe and promote these CONSERVATIVE CORE VALUES and have an endorsement process that supports this platform.
