republican values
Limited government beliefs
Republican values refers to principles associated with the Republican Party in the United States, typically including limited government, lower taxes, free market economics, individual liberty, traditional social values, and strong national defense.
The phrase often appears in political discourse to signal conservative positions: a candidate who embodies republican values.
What counts as republican values shifts over time and varies by speaker—the term is more tribal marker than fixed doctrine.
