Massachusetts Republican Party

The Massachusetts Republican Party offers a new direction, following its core principles of smaller government and individual freedom. The MassGOP will offer strong candidates for elected office to restore good, efficient government to Beacon Hill. The party will field honest candidates who embody the spirit of public service. The solution to the problems on Beacon Hill is no new laws, the solution is new lawmakers. The MassGOP is a party grounded in common-sense principles. We advocate for families and businesses, and demand government policies that help, not new laws. For example, Republican legislators proposed $1 billion in reform savings in 2009, while the Democrats voted for $1 billion in new taxes and fees. The Massachusetts Republican Party consists of all enrolled Republican voters in the Commonwealth and is governed by the Massachusetts Republican State Committee. The State Committee establishes the policies of the Party, provides a central headquarters, gives leadership to the city, ward and town committees in electing Republican candidates to office, raises money for the purposes of the Party, and seeks new members for the Republican Party. Consistent with the preamble to the Rules of the National Republican Party, it is the intent and purpose of the State Committee to foster the tenets of the Republican Party as stated in the Platform of the National Republican Party.
