The time has come for Conservatives and like-minded Independents to secede from their respective parties and join the Conservative Party of the United States of America.
The National Republican Party has consistently failed to uphold conservative principles on so many levels since Ronald Reagan that it can no longer be considered a legitimate representative of traditional American conservative values. That is also true for most Utah State Republicans. While Utah is known as a “Red” state, with the state Republicans dominating the Utah political landscape for decades, many Republican office holders are far from being conservative. The American Conservative Union ranks Utah’s legislature as the 23rd most conservative state on their 2016 survey of state legislatures. Utah is just behind the “conservative” stalwart state of New Hampshire (A New England state rates ahead of a western state like Utah?), and just of ahead of Wisconsin. That rating is reflective of a moderately governed state, and it is certainly reflective of Utah office holders. It is certainly NOT reflective of the conservatism of the state population as a whole. A 2014 Gallup poll ranked Utah’s populace as the 4th most conservative in the nation. There is a clear shortcoming between the conservative tendencies of the people of Utah, and their elected representatives who belong to the Republican Party of Utah. The Conservative Party of Utah rectifies that shortcoming.
There are Five Key Reasons why conservatives must leave the Republican National Committee and the Utah Republican Party if genuine conservatism is to survive in the Beehive State and the nation as a whole. Based on recent legislative and political Republican failures in Utah and the US Congress, it’s clear you should be aware if them.
The Mission of the Conservative Party is to promote and protect individual rights and freedoms set forth in the U.S. Constitution and to limit the scope of government to the authority set forth therein. The Party will preserve the core principles on which this nation was founded as described in the founding documents of the United States. The Utah Conservative Party will respect those political principles held by an overwhelming number of people in Utah.
To accomplish its Mission, the Conservative Party provides true conservatives a strong political support base that empowers them to formulate genuine conservative agendas and to articulate those views to the people Utah and the United States without reservation. The Party then creates the political environment that will encourage its members to run for elected office in Utah and the U.S. Congress.
This is our time to stand up and be counted, and this is the place to do it. It is time to “Come Home America.”
