We are looking forward to another IN PERSON meeting of Douglas County Republican Women on May 19th. An overwhelming majority of voters are not impressed by Joe Biden’s first 100 days in office, but that makes no difference to the violent Left who want their favored policies regardless of whether Americans support them or not.  The Left seems to know what is better for America, and it is not democracy, it is their progressive policies.  We will be subjected to these policies whether they are right for America or not.  In just over 100 days Biden has ended programs to curb illegal immigration, delayed or even stopped the deportation of many of those caught illegally entering our nation, and is barring the media and elected officials from touring or photographing the truth…

On March 27th, the Colorado Republican Party elected their new state officers.  We now have an ALL-FEMALE leadership team: Marilyn Harris - past CFRW President, Priscilla Rahn and Kristi Burton Brown.  All three of these fantastic women are members of the Colorado Federation of Republican Women, one is even a past President of CFRW! They are members of our team and it is our job to get in line to support them in their goal to move our Colorado Republicans forward in the right direction. There was a lot of divisiveness during this election, and we must all get over it, work together and quit being our own worst enemy.  Theodore Roosevelt said, "Do what you can with what you have where you are." We are here now we have…

If ever there was a reason for us to stay informed and to educate those who are not as to what is going on in our country and how much work there is to be done, here it is: Biden and company are set to borrow more money over the next 12 months than the U.S. government borrowed to finance the Revolutionary War, the Civil War, World War I, World War II, and the Cold War combined. This leads me back to what you are going to hear me repeat over and over, from Albert Einstein, “Life is like riding a bicycle, to keep your balance, you must keep moving.” We cannot sit back and do nothing, we must get on and stay on that Republican bicycle and go forward…

WELCOME BACK, I am so delighted to host an in person meeting February 17th, with a great speaker, Ben Martin who is a Constitution expert. We are all Zoom fatigued and this meeting will give us a chance to start getting back to, do I dare say, normal. Please make your reservation now, because with COVID limiting headcounts, we must know how many are coming. This is a new year, starting a month late, but starting. Dues are due, we have begun working on our 2021 Membership Directory and if your dues are not paid by February 17th, you will miss being in the Directory. We would not want that to happen. If you have not paid and will not be at the February meeting, please go to dcrw.org and pay online now. Regardless…

The Board decided to host our October meeting on Zoom, because our discussion of ballot issues this month makes it imperative to get this information to as many DCRW Members as possible.  The number of members we can reach in person is very limited.  Please do register and plan to attend so you can be educated on these issues and be in a position to advise those you know who either don’t know about them or have been ill advised.  We need as many votes on all issues in the right direction as possible. The CFRW Annual Convention will be held virtually on October 10th, you should be getting a registration form shortly.  It will be from 10 am to 1 pm with a fantastic lineup of speakers: Senators Tom Cotton,…
