Why you should
give to republican causes: As Republicans, we
believe in limited government, strong defense, free
markets, personal responsibility, low taxes, and individual
liberty. We believe every person is created equal.
Everyone should have the same rights to liberty and
equality. Our party hasn't always remained true to
that philosophy, but Log Cabin is working hard to bring the
GOP back to those core principles.
1. Equality
won't be achieved without more Republican support, so
it's critical to give money to inclusive R's at
all levels of government.
2. Work still
remains to make the GOP more inclusive, but there are
fair-minded R's across America who should be supported for
their courage in stepping forward as advocates for
basic fairness.
3. If all gay
money goes to Democrats, LGBT people will be taken for
granted. A one-party strategy hasn't benefited other
communities, and it won't benefit our movement.
4. The best way
to change the GOP is from within, so it's important to
support organizations that are working to make the
Republican Party more inclusive.
5. The Democratic
Party doesn't represent the views of millions of LGBT
voters. People who agree with the GOP philosophy of
government should invest in working to make the party
more inclusive.
6. It's critical
to have LGBT people in both parties, or we're putting
all our eggs in one basket. Corporate America is smart
enough to understand this fact, and our movement
should be too.
7. Smaller
government is the best way to maximize personal freedom.
LGBT people should help get the GOP back to its
small-government roots. That will keep the Republican
Party from focusing on divisive social issues.
