A strong and secure America is at the heart of our mission. We advocate for policies that prioritize the safety and sovereignty of the United States, ensuring that our nation is protected from both foreign and domestic threats. By strengthening our borders, enhancing military readiness, and investing in advanced defense technologies, we aim to safeguard the freedoms and prosperity of all Americans.
Border security extends beyond physical barriers to include cybersecurity, which is critical in protecting our nation from digital threats. We are committed to countering the influence of hostile foreign adversaries, such as China, Russia, and North Korea, who seek to undermine our national security and economic stability. This includes blocking foreign infiltration aimed at influencing local and state policies that hinder economic development and weaken our national security priorities. Food security, supported by critical mineral production, also plays a key role in bolstering national resilience by ensuring a stable and reliable agricultural output.
Through decisive action and strategic partnerships, we work to protect America’s interests and maintain its position as a global leader. Our approach emphasizes putting America first, ensuring that our policies reflect the values and priorities of the American people.
Supporting National Security
Did You Know?
Did you know that prioritizing national security through modernized infrastructure, advanced technologies, and energy independence could significantly strengthen America’s defense against adversaries, ensuring safety, sovereignty, and prosperity for generations to come?
The Facts:
- Cybersecurity Defense: The U.S. faces over 30 billion cyberattacks annually, targeting critical infrastructure, government networks, and private industries. Strengthening cyber resilience through advanced technologies, such as artificial intelligence-driven threat detection and quantum-resistant encryption, is essential to protect national security and economic stability.
- Military Readiness: The U.S. military operates over 800 bases worldwide, ensuring global presence and rapid response capabilities. Modernizing these installations with advanced energy systems, resilient infrastructure, and cutting-edge defense technologies would enhance operational readiness and reduce vulnerabilities.
- Safeguarding Military Bases at Home: Domestic military installations are increasingly vulnerable to disruptions from cyberattacks, natural disasters, and aging infrastructure. Investing in independent power systems, such as microgrids, would reduce reliance on the civilian electric grid and ensure uninterrupted operations during emergencies.
- Advanced Defense Technologies: The U.S. defense budget allocated $145 billion in 2023 for research and development of advanced technologies, including hypersonic weapons, artificial intelligence, and autonomous systems. These innovations are critical for maintaining a competitive edge against adversaries like China and Russia.
- Energy Independence for Security: Expanding domestic energy production, including oil, natural gas, and critical minerals, would reduce reliance on foreign adversaries like Russia and China. For example, the U.S. imports over 80% of its rare earth minerals from China, a dependency that could be eliminated through domestic development.
- Economic Security Through Manufacturing: Revitalizing American manufacturing is key to national security. By bringing production of critical goods like semiconductors, defense equipment, and pharmaceuticals back to the U.S., we can reduce reliance on foreign supply chains and ensure economic stability during global crises.
- Countering Foreign Influence: Hostile nations like China and Russia invest billions annually in cyber espionage and disinformation campaigns targeting U.S. industries and institutions. Strengthening intelligence capabilities and enforcing strict policies to block foreign interference are vital to safeguarding American sovereignty.
