Mission

The Mission of the Republican Committee of Lower Merion and Narberth is to ensure that our community and neighborhoods remain strong and vibrant.  

For over 100 years, Republican leadership in Lower Merion and Narberth has  established  and  maintained  excellent  schools,  superior  police  and  fire departments,  effective  municipal  government  and  desirable  residential neighborhoods.    Republicans  achieved  these  results  through  a  commitment  to low  taxes,  controlled  spending,  education,  and  support  for  our  business community.  

We work to:

• Recruit, support and elect Republican candidates to achieve Republican  majorities  on  the  Lower  Merion  and  Narberth School  Board,  Lower  Merion  Board  of  Commissioners  and Narberth Borough Council.
• Support  Republican  elected  officials  and  candidates  who share our Statement of Principles.
• Promote  and  foster  the  principles  of  the  Republican Committee of Lower Merion and Narberth.
• Advance policies that broaden the tax base by attracting and retaining businesses.
• Increase Republican  voter  registration in Lower Merion and Narberth.
• Promote strong existing neighborhoods and non-profit institutions and the securing of open space.
• Prioritize the educational achievement of our students.
• Inform  our  neighbors  about  the  key  local  issues  that  will determine  the  future  growth  and  prosperity  of  our community.
