ABOUT US Deaf Republicans is a grassroots organization formed to foster the principles and values of the Republican Party within the deaf and hard of hearing community. The mission of Deaf Republicans is to build a national grassroots network within the deaf and hard of hearing Americans community through which Republican ideals and beliefs can be articulated and embraced. Deaf Republicans believe that for our issues and concerns to be heard by politicians, the deaf and hard of hearing community must be represented on both sides of the political spectrum. We will seek to develop and nurture relationships between the deaf and hard of hearing community and Republican leaders. Together we will address issues and policy matters of importance to the deaf and hard of hearing community, and resolve them in ways consistent with the pull-yourself-up-from-your-bootstraps Republican ideals that enable members of our community to achieve their goals on level playing grounds, eliminate barriers to opportunities and participation in society, accomplish self-determination and self-reliance, attain economic empowerment, and free themselves from dependence on government services and entitlements.
