The purposes of the Rio Blanco County Republican Central Committee are to perform the functions set forth in the election laws of the State of Colorado and the Bylaws of the Colorado State Republican Central Committee for the Rio Blanco County Republican Central Committee including, but not limited to:

2. Disseminating political information about the affairs of our county, state and nation, and defining the issues at stake.
3. Actively supporting and soliciting public support for the Republican candidates for county, state and national offices (see Article III, Section 3.02).
4. Raising funds of the Republican Party and Republican candidates for public offices.
5. Developing a strong Republican organization with a high degree of involvement by citizens.
6. Encouraging citizens to exercise the American right to vote.
7. Exerting every effort to achieve the general objectives of the Republican party.

The Rio Blanco County Republicans work to promote and put forth the best candidates that stand behind the philosophies adopted by the party:

“I AM A REPUBLICAN BECAUSE:

• I believe it is important to respect each person’s ability, dignity, freedom and responsibility.
• I believe individual initiative must be encouraged in getting things done.
• I believe government exists to protect the freedom of each person, not to restrict it.
• I believe people who cannot provide for themselves deserve help and also deserve to be helped to become self-supporting citizens who take pride in their self-reliance and independence.
• I believe equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity are everybody’s rights.
• I believe respect for laws, the courts and the CONSTITUTION are vital to preservation of the nation and security for the citizen.
• I believe excessive taxation, inflation and government waste can destroy our country; government must maintain sound money and a responsible economy.
• I believe while we remain militarily strong, we must continue our efforts towards world peace and friendship.

These principles reflect a Republican’s basic beliefs.  Republicans have held firm to these principles for nearly a century and a quarter.  The nation needs more Republicans today so our nation can be stronger tomorrow.  That’s the best reason to be a Republican.”
