                                                The Texas Federation of Republican Women
        June 15 Tribute to Women Luncheon       will be well represented in San Antonio at the
                                                Republican Party of Texas State Convention next
                                                month. The push to increase our involvement in
                                                the convention was a topic discussed following
                                                the 2016 Convention in Dallas where T.F.R.W.
                                                participation was at a low and at a time when we needed our membership to
          Table of Contents                     become involved in more than luncheons and forums. Congratulations ladies,
                                                once again, you met the challenge! We have more than doubled our normal
       Winners                             2    delegate count and have engaged and encouraged family and friends to
                                                become delegates.
       Sign Up for the
       Tribute to Women Luncheon           2    I will go ahead and address the ‘elephant’ in the room and say that there
                                                is a heated race for the position of State Party Chairman. As President, our
       Margaritas with Senoritas           3    bylaws prohibit me from endorsing a candidate in a Republican race. Having
                                                said that, please come to convention educated about both the candidates;
       It’s Convention Time in
                                                do your research. My personal focus as a delegate will be the Party Platform.
       Beautiful San Antonio!              4
                                                The Platform is too long and contradicts itself in certain planks. How can we
       Amnesty is in Play                  5    be the party of limited government when we are constantly adding to the
                                                platform and telling people how to live? Please read the platform, study the
       Why Does an Organization                 platform, and come prepared to vote on the planks.

                                                Additionally, I want you all to know that Chairman Dickey offered me a time
       Celebrate and Honor the Military    7    slot to address the delegates and guests on Saturday after the Freedom
                                                Caucus. After careful thought, I declined the offer. I want there to be no

                                                discussion that the R.P.T. did not offer the President of T.F.R.W. a time to
       2018 Patrons & Associate Patrons    9    speak at the convention.
