We believe everyday Americans should be able to decide what’s best for them and their communities.
That’s why we’re building a party that puts the power back in the hands of the American voter.
RULE OF LAW
Members of the Forward Party uphold the Constitution and the rule of law, and respect the outcomes of our free and fair elections.
SUPPORT AND STRENGTHEN DEMOCRACY
Forward believes that our democracy works only when voters can make informed decisions and our systems are set up to empower and elevate the will of the voters. Elected officials must be accountable to their constituents.
AMERICAN LEADERSHIP
It is necessary for America to serve as an example of democracy and individual freedoms. Building alliances and stabilizing democracy across the globe is key to maintaining a safe world for ourselves and our children.
BUILD FROM THE BOTTOM UP
Forward is building an organization designed to empower voters and local leaders. Forward won’t dictate a rigid, top-down policy platform and expect it to work for every community across the country.
USE DATA TO DRIVE SOLUTIONS
Forward cares more about solving problems than being right. Good ideas come from the left, right, and center—or from completely new directions. Data, research, and a commitment to development should drive our discussions, and policy should be enacted with measurable outcomes.
INNOVATION AND ENTREPRENEURSHIP
America has long won the global competition for talent and innovation. Our culture of entrepreneurship has constantly improved living conditions both at home and abroad. The Forward Party is dedicated to ensuring that good new ideas are allowed to thrive.
LIBERTY, RESPONSIBILITY, AND ENGAGEMENT
At the Forward Party, we believe that personal responsibility includes duties to care for our families however we define them, uplift our communities, and contribute to the greater good. It is through balancing our liberty with our duty to others in which the true American spirit thrives.
RESPECT AND DIGNITY
Forward believes in approaching one another with respect for the dignity that lives in each of us. Our policies and campaigns will seek to elevate and empower people to seek their unique version of the American Dream.
ETHICS, INTEGRITY, AND COMPASSION
Forward leaders, members, and candidates are expected to act ethically and with integrity. That said, we are all fallible and make mistakes. At Forward, we are expected to admit them and work to rectify any harm we have caused.
