Dear Editor: The Platform of the Montana Republican Party

Dear Editor,

Recently, two representatives (male and female) from the Jefferson County Republican Central Committee went to the Republican National Convention. Upon their return, they presented the Platform of the Montana Republican Party, a 16-page summary of our position on Montana and national issues.

America needs determined Republican leadership at every level of government to address the core threats to our very survival: our disastrously open border, our weakened economy, crippling restrictions on American energy production, our depleted military, attacks on the American system of justice, and much more.

To make clear our commitment, we offer to the American people the 2024 GOP Platform to Make America Great Again! It is a forward-looking agenda that begins with the following twenty promises that we will accomplish very quickly when we win the White House and Republican majorities in the House and Senate.

• Seal the border and stop the migrant invasion.

• Carry out the largest deportation operation in American history

• Eng inflation and make America affordable again.

• Make America the dominant energy producer in the world by far!

• Stop outsourcing and turn the United States into a manufacturing superpower.

• Large tax cuts for workers and no tax on tips!

• Defend our Constitution, our Bill of Rights, and our fundamental freedoms - including Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Religion, and the right to keep and bear arms.

• Prevent World War III and restore peace in Europe and the Middle East.

• Build a great iron dome missile defense shield over our entire country - all made in America.

• End the weaponization of government against the American people.

• Stop the migrant crime epidemic, demolish the foreign drug cartels, crush gang violence, and lock up violent offenders.

• Rebuild our cities, including Washington, DC - making them safe, clean, and beautiful again.

• Strengthen and modernize our military, making it - without question - the strongest and most powerful in the world.

• Keep the U.S. dollar as the world's reserve currency.

• Figh for and protect social security and Medicare with no cuts, including no changes to the retirement age.

• Cancel the electric vehicle mandate and cut costly and burdensome regulations.

• Cut federal funding for any school pushing critical race theory, radical gender ideology, and other inappropriate racial, sexual, or political content on our children.

• Keep men out of women's sports.

• Deport pro-Hamas radicals and make our college campuses safe and patriotic again.

• Secure our elections, including same-day voting, voter identification, paper ballots, and proof of citizenship.

• United our country by bringing it to new and record levels of success.
