Policy Platform

The strength of American society is built on the hard work of the working-class.

As a party, our goals are to: 

Raise the minimum wage to a living wage ($20 hourly);

Ensure that workers are fairly compensated by their employers;

Protect unions and the power of collective bargaining;

Create a worker advisory board where workers may voice their grievances and concerns directly to their elected representatives; and

Encourage the practice of providing more paid-time-off and the 4-day work week.

Americans have become less able to afford basic necessities, and the Tennessee Bull Moose will directly tackle this issue through several different avenues, which include;

Helping parents and guardians by implementing Universal Pre-K (Kindergarten);

Lowering Rental Costs on housing; and the 

Forgiveness of Delinquent Power-Bills.

Everybody knows that our 2-party electoral system is broken and doesn't accurately reflect the electoral will of the American people. The Tennessee Bull Moose will aggressively pursue policies that expand our right as Americans to vote. These policies include instant-runoff voting, same-day voter registration, early voting, term limits, and allowing any form of government identification to vote.

Keeping with the Bull Moose Party's historical support of Equal Suffrage for men and women, we advocate for the expansion of civil rights and freedoms to protect all people, in an effort to create a more egalitarian society, where people will not be discriminated against based upon their race, ethnicity, color, sex, gender, religion, creed, sexual orientation, disability, age, and national origin.

Keeping with the traditions of the Bull Moose Party, our founder Theodore Roosevelt was an avid gun enthusiast, and encouraged all Americans to be proficient in marksmanship. The Black Panther Party would also employ firearms in the protection of their community from systemic forms of oppression that African Americans were facing during the Civil Rights Movement. With these historical allegories in mind, the Tennessee Bull Moose shall pursue alternatives that won't infringe upon our constitutional rights.

Addressing the mental health epidemic;

Addressing wealth inequality and poverty;

Comprehensive and speedy background checks;

Encouraging training courses and gun safety; and 

Ending the drug war, thus handicapping gangs and cartels, and the violence they cause.
