With your help, GOP platform leads on liberty. See you in San Antonio!
Criminal Justice reform is about core American values, like individual liberty, personal responsibility, and a smaller, less invasive government. The policies and laws that deprive people of liberty must be wielded carefully and with respect for the constitution and the impact on taxpayers.
The GOP is already a leader for liberty — it is time to clearly outline that leadership as it relates to criminal justice.
Thanks to people like you, many strong planks passed at the county and Senate District conventions, and those ideas will now be considered at the State Convention in June! If you are a delegate at the state convention, you can help!
