Mission
The mission of the Town of Chatham Republican Committee is to support the work of the Republican Party. We look to recruit, educate, and support the most qualified Republican Candidates in local elections. We seek to engage and grow our base through the presentation of topics that our community has an interest in. When it comes to community service and volunteerism, we plan to lead through example.
Vision Statement
The vision of the Town of Chatham Republican Committee is one that includes all and promotes open discussion on issues that affect our community. We seek to protect our Constitution, individual rights, property rights, personal freedoms, and the family.
Our goal is to protect the quality of life we now enjoy and we promise to work at bringing this quality of life to all. We will make every effort to keep our government small and efficient, while exploring areas of combined services.
We will protect the rural character that is Chatham while keeping in mind the need for employment and economic growth that is essential in keeping our young people here and that provides the tax base that will also make it affordable.
