(Washington, D.C.) – “Today, is the 200th birthday of President Abraham Lincoln – the first Republican to be elected President of the United States. President Lincoln presided over our country during fractured and turbulent times. His visionary leadership and moral clarity, even under the most difficult and trying of circumstances, should serve as a model for our elected officials in Washington today.”

The Republican Main Street Partnership (RMSP) is dedicated to promoting and building a pragmatic, thoughtful, fiscally conservative, and inclusive “Governing Majority,” where political debate is encouraged to promote solutions to improve the lives of all Americans. Embracing the full spectrum of center-right ideologies and values in order to build coalitions, RMSP is the largest organization of elected leaders who are in the mold of Abraham Lincoln, Teddy Roosevelt, and Ronald Reagan.
