GOP Code of Ethics

Due to several requests looking for a copy of the "GOP Code of Ethics", I have made some inquiries. Apparently the GOP DOES NOT have a Code of Ethics at the Tennessee GOP or at the National GOP. Below is an e-mail response from Valerie Phillips of the National GOP. Perhaps it is time to have a Code of Ethics?

Mr. Johns,

Thank you for contacting the Republican National Committee. The RNC does not have a “Code of Ethics.” The Party is governed by the Rules of the Republican Party. The Rules may be found online at: http://www.gop.com/About/AboutRead.aspx?AboutType=4

Please feel free to contact me should you have any additional questions.

Thanks and best,

Valerie Phillips
Director of Staff and Special Projects
