    TFRW First Quarter Board of Directors                 Focused on 2020
    Meeting
                                                How we respond to the 2018 Midterm Elections is
                                                important. Do we respond by wearing silly hats and
        Table of Contents                       protesting at the Capitol? Maybe ask for a recount in
                                                all the judicial races we lost? No, we are Republican
                                                Women, and that’s not how we roll; we look inward, figure out what we

                                                did wrong, roll up our sleeves, and get to work. If I were to blame the Texas
     What Really Matters                2       Federation of Republican Women for election results, I would say,

     We Need You!                       3
                                                   “We did not have strong membership numbers, we did not
     Saturday, January 12               4          train enough women to run for office, and we need to be more
     ‘Tis the Season of Membership!     5          visible.”

     Remember All That Fundraising
                                                First, we need to increase membership. If we do not increase our numbers,
     You Did All Year Long…             6
                                                we will have less workers to deploy to campaigns. We need to take
     It’s Island Time, Again!           7       membership far more seriously, and we need our elected officials to
                                                plug TFRW every time they are at an event. Every woman who attends a

                                                Republican event should be a member of TFRW; it’s that simple.

                                                Second, we need more women to run for office. Charisa Dvorak is our new
                                                Candidate Development Chairperson, and she has a plan that she will explain

                                                at the next board meeting.
     It’s that Time of the Year Again   9
                                                Third, the Texas Federation of Republican Women needs to be more vocal
     Carmen Dusek Appointed to                  and more visible this legislative season. We need to be out there more, and
     the 51st District Court           10       this starts in our clubs. We need more self-promotion.

     Moments in History                 11      I am already focused on 2020 and making sure that our organization is at its
                                                best, so we can give Republicans our best.
