About the Tampa Republican Club

Tampa Republican Club is a grass-roots organization of like-minded individuals who adhere to the principles of the Republican National Committee and the Republican Party of Florida.

Our purpose is to support the principles, objectives and platforms of the Republican Party and help secure the election of duly nominated Republican candidates in general elections and registered Republicans in non-partisan elections.

We are open to Republican men and women who are interested in good government and we warmly welcome new members.

I am a Republican Because:

  • I Believe… The proper function of government is to do for the people those things that have to be done but cannot be done, or cannot be done as well, by individuals, and that the most effective government is government closest to the people.
  • I Believe… Good government is based upon the individual and that each person’s ability, dignity, freedom, and responsibility must be honored and recognized.
  • I Believe… The free enterprise and the encouragement of individual initiative and incentive have given this nation an economic system second to none.
  • I Believe… Sound money management should be our goal.
  • I Believe… In equal right, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, age, sex or national origin.
  • I Believe… We must retain those principles of the past worth retaining, yet always be receptive to new ideas with an outlook broad enough to accommodate thoughtful change and varying points of view.
  • I Believe… That Americans value and should preserve their feeling of national strength and pride, and at the same time share with people everywhere a desire for peace and freedom and the extension of human rights throughout the world.
  • I Believe… The Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government.
