Chairman’s Update – May 1, 2012

Dear Fellow Republicans,

I don’t know about you, but for me, it just seems like 2012 is flying by. Here we are, already into May, and I, like you, have been dealing with all those life events and important struggles that 300 million Americans wrestle with on a daily basis – matters of family and health, professional and community, you name it. I am not alone – I know from speaking with many of you the kinds of situations that you bring with you no matter where you go. We must all keep this in mind, as we work together in the name of the Republican Party. And we should constantly remind ourselves that the goal we are all working towards – replacing this President with a conservative, and bringing about Republican leadership at all levels of government – will in itself help so many Americans move their way to a brighter future. That is my prayer – that on November 6th, the fruits of our labors will allow all Americans to see that shining city on a hill once again.

Find Out What’s Happening with Healthcare at our May Breakfast

The Supreme Court is expected to rule on Obamacare before its term ends in late June. At our May breakfast, we’ll hear from Georgia Attorney General Sam Olens, who attended many of the Supreme Court hearings in person and Georgia Sixth District Congressman Tom Price, who is proposing an alternative to replace Obamacare with an alternative that makes sense.

Sam Olens was elected in November 2010 as Georgia’s Attorney General after serving as the Chairman of Cobb County’s Board of Commissioners. Since taking office, he has represented Georgia in the Supreme Court in its opposition to the health care law, and has successfully pushed the legislature for more transparency in Georgia’s Sunshine laws.

Chairman’s Update – April 2, 2012

Greetings Fellow Republicans!

I know you were as encouraged as I was by the good news out of the U.S. Supreme Court this week. The line of questioning from the conservative Justices, and particularly Justice Anthony Kennedy, provides indication that the Court could possibly find the entire Obamacare law unconstitutional, which would be the the correct decision. We must bear in mind, however, that if this does happen – and for the sake of our nation, we hope and pray this is the decision – the Democrats will be energized that much more to re-elect this President, so that they can find another way to bring about nationalized health care. We will need every ounce of energy we can muster to fight this battle in November for the future of our country.
