The Cherokee County Republican Party would like to wish all of our members and friends a Happy and safe Independence Day and remind them of these words from our Founding Fathers:
“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. That to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness.”
The Cherokee County Republican Party would also like to thank our service men and women for their sacrifice, selflessness and willingness to fight for our way of life, our freedoms and our liberties. We pray for those of you in harm’s way that you will safely make it back to your families and loved ones as quickly as possible!
