Perot's Reform Party

Perot's Reform Party was a political movement founded in the early 1990s by Ross Perot, a billionaire businessman, to promote government reform, fiscal responsibility, and political accountability. It aimed to challenge the two main parties by emphasizing issues like reducing federal debt, improving government efficiency, and addressing corruption. The party gained notable attention when Perot ran for president in 1992 and 1996 as an independent candidate associated with the Reform Party, which sought to provide an alternative for voters dissatisfied with traditional politics. Although it declined in influence over time, the party's focus on reforms continues to resonate in American political discourse.
