DALLAS – More than 225 Republican women leaders from across the nation gathered at the National Federation of Republican Women’s (NFRW) annual board meeting in Dallas on Sept. 18-20 to kick off the fall election season.
Jeannine Long of Guthrie, OK, representing First Capital Republican Women, attended the event, where she heard from Texas Gov. Rick Perry, U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz, state land commissioner candidate George P. Bush, and Republican National Committee Co-Chair Sharon Day.
“We are so pleased that Governor Perry, Senator Cruz and our other special guests took time out of their busy schedules to meet with us,” NFRW President Kathy Brugger said. “They each delivered an inspirational, enthusiastic message about the grassroots work that will lead to Republican victories – particularly in the U.S. Senate. Republican women are energized and ready to return home and get to work.”
Long, past State President, national officer, and founder of the local club in 2007, also attended a five-state regional meeting and was trained to coordinate First Capital’s membership with the new NFRW database.
Founded in 1938, the NFRW has thousands of active members in local clubs across the nation, making it one of the largest women’s political organizations in the country. The grassroots organization works to promote the principles and objectives of the Republican Party, elect Republican candidates, inform the public through political education and activity, and increase the effectiveness of women in the cause of good government.
