Tenets & Principles of the
San Mateo County Republican Party

We believe in the American Dream: in the right of self-determination, which gives rise to American Exceptionalism - in that everyone should be afforded the opportunity to succeed regardless of their race, ethnicity, religion, or sex…

We believe that people, not government can solve the problems that plague our society – the human spirit can be powerful and good…

We believe that everyone deserves the right to live their life in a respectful fashion; and that we all deserve the right to live in safety, that laws should be observed with the appropriate consequences for breaking the law...

We believe in legal based immigration, as that has been a cornerstone of our country’s development and that there is no country without borders…

We support and respect law enforcement, first-responders and front-line workers and appropriately hold to them to a high standard of conduct…

We believe that America should not be dependent on foreign countries for critical resources such as energy, food and other essentials that fuel our economy and sustain our people…

We believe in the power of education and that all children should be given the tools they need to succeed and sustain themselves and that education is partnership between parents and teachers…

We believe in our traditional institutions and that Family, Teachers, and Religion all play a vital role in our society…

We believe that public spending of money we do not have does not make sense – we expect all public program investments to be accountable and based on necessity…

We believe that Climate Change is real, but must be addressed pragmatically without creating unintended economic impact and from the lens of global responsibility…
