ILRA is a grassroots organization with "establishment" experience committed to helping reform the Republican Party: if you believe in small government, lower taxes, free market capitalism, a strong defense, the right to life, and Constitutional values, then ILRA is for you.
Our aim is to reclaim the Republican Party for Conservatives, reform the Party back to its Conservative Values, and restore Republicans’ faith in the GOP. We don't need a third party. We need to return the Republican Party to its pro-Constitution roots.
Some of our core beliefs. . .
*We believe that man's rights flow from the Creator and the rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are unalienable and cannot be legitimately granted or rescinded by men.
*We believe in nationalism, and that Government's first concern is the welfare and protection of the American people and their sovereign right to rule themselves without deference to any foreign or international body.
*We believe in the supremacy of the power of individual citizens over the powers they choose to delegate to the state, a principle enshrined in the Tenth Amendment.
*We believe that only small government truly serves the needs of the people and that those governments closest to the people are most responsive to their needs.
* We affirm the principle of Federalism, and its establishment in the form created by the Founders.
*We believe that free and fair elections are essential to preserving our Republic.
*We believe in the free enterprise system as the best hope for men and women to fulfill their economic hopes and dreams.
*We believe that the traditional American family, consisting of persons related by blood or adoption through the marriage of one man and one woman, is the cornerstone of our American society, and that the government is duty bound to protect the integrity of the family unit.
And last, but not least. . .
*We believe all the rights protected in the Bill of Rights must be vigilantly safeguarded by our courts and legislatures, including the Right to Bear Arms.
*We believe in the right of all Americans to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as informed by the Judeo-Christian ethic underpinning our Constitution and Declaration of Independence.
If you would like to help us recruit Republican candidates, fund Republican candidates, train Republican candidates and inform the public about Republican values and why voting Republican is the only option for preserving our democratic Republic and the American dream for all, then JOIN US! LET’S MAKE ILLINOIS GREAT AGAIN!
