Our Vision: A New Era of Progressive Leadership
At the heart of the Bull Moose Party is a commitment to progressive leadership that transcends traditional partisan divides. We recognize that the political landscape in America is deeply polarized, and that this division has hindered our ability to address the critical issues facing our nation. Our vision is to create a political movement that breaks through this gridlock by focusing on common-sense solutions and putting the interests of the American people above all else. Inspired by the original Progressive Party’s bold platform, we seek to reimagine and reinvigorate American politics with a focus on the following core principles:
Democratic Renewal
The Bull Moose Party is dedicated to the revitalization of American democracy. We believe that a truly representative government is one that reflects the will of the people and is transparent in its operations. Our commitment to democratic renewal includes advocating for comprehensive electoral reforms that ensure every citizen’s voice is heard. We support the adoption of ranked-choice voting to provide more choices to voters and reduce the influence of extreme partisanship. Additionally, we call for the end of gerrymandering, the reform of campaign finance laws to limit the influence of money in politics, and the protection of voting rights for all Americans. By making our political system more open and accessible, we can restore faith in our democracy and ensure that it works for everyone.
Economic Fairness, Diversity & Opportunity
The Bull Moose Party believes in an economy that serves the needs of all Americans, not just the privileged few. We are committed to policies that promote economic fairness, protect workers’ rights, and create opportunities for all to prosper. This includes advocating for a living wage, ensuring that every worker has access to affordable health care, and supporting the right to unionize. We believe that a strong middle class is the backbone of our economy, and we are dedicated to rebuilding it by supporting small businesses, investing in education and job training, and creating pathways to economic mobility. Our economic policies are rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a fair shot at achieving the American Dream.
Environmental Stewardship & Sustainability
The Bull Moose Party is deeply committed to the protection of our environment and the urgent need to address climate change. We believe that environmental stewardship is not only a moral imperative but also an economic necessity. Our platform includes a bold plan to transition to a clean energy economy that will create millions of new jobs, reduce our dependence on fossil fuels, and protect our natural resources for future generations. We support the implementation of comprehensive environmental regulations that hold corporations accountable for their impact on the planet, and we advocate for policies that promote conservation, protect endangered species, and ensure that all Americans have access to clean air and water. We recognize that the health of our environment is inextricably linked to the health of our communities, and we are committed to building a sustainable future for all.
Leadership for all Americans
The Bull Moose Party believes in the founding quote from the founder of the party, "Speak softly and carry a big stick." We believe that this applies to America and its leaders in multiple ways. Instead of dividing America like the major two political parties, we aim to work across the aisle. We are all Americans trying to make our country better and the only way to do that is by working together.
Social Justice & Equity
The Bull Moose Party is unwavering in its commitment to social justice and equality for all. We believe that every person, regardless of race, gender, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic status, deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. Our platform includes comprehensive civil rights protections, support for gender equality and reproductive rights, and a commitment to ending systemic racism and discrimination in all its forms. We are advocates for the LGBTQIA+ community, criminal justice reform, including the end of mass incarceration and the implementation of policies that promote rehabilitation and reintegration. We believe that a just society is one where everyone has the opportunity to thrive, and we are dedicated to fighting for policies that advance equality and protect the rights of all Americans.
Free Market for Everyone
The Bull Moose Party is committed to promoting capitalism for everyone and the most free market for the people. the Bull Moose Party will champion a thriving free market by empowering small and medium-sized U.S. businesses. This will be achieved through a comprehensive national effort focused on renewable energy investment, which will create new economic opportunities and reduce energy costs. Additionally, the party will advocate for lower taxes on small and medium-sized enterprises, fostering innovation and entrepreneurship. By prioritizing these efforts, the Bull Moose Party aims to ensure that economic growth benefits all Americans, not just the privileged few.
Domestic Focus > Global Referee
It's time for America to focus on its people. We can do this by investing in ourselves and reallocating resources spent in the Middle East, into the American energy infrastructure. This can be done by expanding our oil drilling initiatives domestically for the short term, while investing in new forms of energy like electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel-cells, nuclear artificial intelligence and more. As a nation, we as Americans must fix our issues domestically before we can fix anyones globally.
