Conservative Values

---

We, the Republican Party of Whatcom County, standing on the shoulders of our nation’s Founders, affirm each person’s God-given unalienable rights, including Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness and that all are created equal. These rights are outlined and protected by the Declaration of Independence, Constitution of the United States, the Bill of Rights, and the Washington State Constitution. We affirm these institutions that have created the greatest nation on earth, built on the Judeo-Christian heritage of the founding fathers.

Life... 

Our nation will be strong only as we value every individual.  Each human life from conception to natural death – their abilities, responsibilities, dignity, freedom, and Life itself - must be honored.

Liberty... 

We support free enterprise that promotes liberty, justice, prosperity and charity as morally superior to the tyranny of compulsive government.  

We support freedom of personal compassion, true charity that benefits those who receive, and ennobles those who give.  

We support freedom of school choice as essential to achieving educational excellence, and helping families to prepare their children to lead useful and productive lives.

We support freedom through military strength.  Freedom to be strong as a nation lays the 

foundation for greatness, self-determination and the spread of Liberty. 

The Pursuit of Happiness... 

We affirm that Personal Property Rights are a bedrock principle upon which our Constitutional 

government stands and this right must be guarded as a primary key to the Pursuit of Happiness.

"The future belongs to those who “show up.” We are the ones who should be governing, NOT the ones being governed.  It doesn't have to be a lot of people, just enough to keep watch on the workings of government.  We need to be involved.”  Glen Morgan, We the People “Freedom is never more than one generation from extinction . . . It must be fought for, protected, and handed down for them to do the same.”  Ronald Reagan
