Delegates, I’m Marsha Blackburn, from the Great State of Tennessee.
Last week I had the honor of Chairing the Republican Platform Committee and I’m here today to report on our work. I would like to thank the delegates who served on the Committee and helped us produce a platform that all Republicans can be proud of. It’s a different kind of platform. It’s not a laundry list of special interest wishes, but a succinct, clear agenda and a promise to the American people.
I talked with our next President Donald J. Trump, and he personally reviewed, edited and approved our platform because he knows it is important. Every American can read our platform and know what we believe and how we will make America safer, stronger, wealthier and greater than ever before.
This platform is built on the values of our founders and great Republicans from Lincoln and Reagan to Trump who committed to freedom, restrained government, and peace through Strength.
The platform contains twenty promises including securing our border, getting inflation under control, restoring our energy dominance, defending our Constitution, protecting our Second Amendment rights, protecting our children, securing our country, restoring our military strength, keeping boys out of girls’ sports, and protecting life – born and unborn.
Our nation is in serious decline; taken there by the Biden-Harris policies that have put government first and the people last. The Democrats have forgotten who they serve. We are here this week to remind them and America, that we Republicans serve the people, and we will not forget them. That’s why our platform is dedicated to the forgotten men and women of America and will unite all Americans. It is of, by, and for the People.
Our platform reflects the agenda of Donald Trump and the timeless values that have defined Republicans for generations. Let’s unite in support of our platform and our next President, Donald Trump. President Trump will keep his promises as he did in his first term as President and restore American Greatness. And that is why we must return Donald Trump to the White House!
Thank you.
