Republicans

Republicans is a conservative political party in the United States that traces its origins to the mid‑19th century Whig and Know‑Nothing movements, unifying under the Republican Party banner by the 1850s. The party’s platform emphasizes limited government, lower taxes, deregulation, and strong national defense, while its current priorities often focus on economic deregulation, conservative judicial appointments, and opposition to progressive social policies. In contemporary American politics, Republicans organize at the local, state, and federal levels, fielding candidates for offices ranging from city councils to the U.S. Congress and the presidency.
