President’s Pen – May 2020
“April showers bring May flowers.”
The increased handwashing protocols and other factors in April have slowed the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic enough that President Trump has announced the transition to reopening our nation to business and commerce in May.
While a return to “normal life” won’t happen overnight, the grit and optimism inherent to Texans is certain to make us one of the first states to rebound. With this in mind, TFRW is moving forward with our Board of Directors meetings...
President’s Pen – April 2020
This article is NOT about the Coronavirus – You’re welcome!
It IS about the positive impact we can make in our state and nation. Those who know me well know that I’m a big believer in finding the silver lining in every situation. It’s a choice I make because being “Polly Positive” isn’t my natural inclination. I’m what I like to call a “self-made optimist.” When the media is focused on gloom and doom and no one seems to have anything...

The Hungarian people have a long history of oppression at the hands of other govern- ments. From the Ottoman Turks to German and Soviet occupations, the Hungarian people have developed a unique appreciation of liberty and freedom. They recognize that what America has is...
President’s Message – February 2020
Bellwether to Blowout Texas stays RED!
Every mainstream media outlet I have encountered reported the same thing; “The special election results in HD28 [Fort Bend County] would be how Texas would vote in November.”
Democrats spent over two million dollars and brought in hundreds of paid workers from both coasts. Forward Majority, a Democratic Super PAC focused on flipping state houses, says it alone spent $400,000. Democratic presidential candidates, Joe Biden and Elizabeth Warren, endorsed the Democrat candidate for this Texas House...
President’s Message – January 2020
Happy New Year, TFRW!
What an exciting time to be a Republican!
You’ve heard it before, but we truly are facing the most important election year of our lives. I know that you are well aware of the challenges we will face in the upcoming year, and more importantly what is on the line if we don’t succeed, but together we are stronger, more empowered and more effective. Our TFRW theme for 2020-2021 is “For Texas and The Country!” I hope that...
