Preamble
Mississippians – from the sandy beaches of the Gulf Coast to the fertile lowlands of the Mississippi Delta, from the vast woodlands of the Pinebelt to the gentle hills along the Tennessee-Tombigbee Waterway – have charged the Mississippi Republican Party to guard the eternal principles of liberty, security, and enterprise and to create Mississippi’s Moment
- Our instructors must have the freedom to teach, our students must have the opportunity to learn, and our policies should focus on the classroom – not the boardroom.

- Mississippians should be secure in their homes, safe in their schools, and free from fear at the neighborhood grocery store or mall. Punishment for violent crime must be just, swift, and certain.

- Creating a 21st Century infrastructure, freeing business from wasteful and ineffective regulation or litigation, and casting off the shackles of unwise and burdensome taxes will nurture and propagate Mississippi’s Moment for economic growth.

- Protecting and securing the "life, liberty, and property" of Mississippians begins first with guarding the life of the unborn child. Our policies should honor the sanctity of innocent human life.

- Without responsibility, bureaucracy flourishes and government grows. We must empower the executive branch of our government with the tools to accomplish what we elect them to do.

- We must cut taxes, not shift them. We must remove the over-taxed burden from the backs of hard working Mississippians. We must demand that government stop wasting our money on failing and unproductive programs and instead return our property to us.

- Natural resources can both be utilized and protected. This is the balance our environmental policy must seek.

The promise of the bright and hopeful Mississippi we seek is on the horizon, and not a deceptive and unattainable goal. Better schools, safer streets, a prosperous economy that respects life, liberty and property in a nurturing and resourceful environment are a part of the future Mississippi seeks. This is the future of Mississippi as seen by its Republican Party.
