Distribution of Membership

Lists

The following policy on the distribu-

tion of membership lists has been

adopted by the NFRW Executive

Committee:

"All member information is the sole

property of the National Federation

of Republican Women (NFRW) and

is strictly for the benefit of the Na-

tional Federation of Republican

Women and shall not be sold or fur-

nished for any other purpose."

environmental groups hailed the decision,

the House Committee on Natural Re-

sources said the Obama administration

has dangerous priorities. The Obama

administration drove Shell out of the Arc-

tic with regulatory hell that went on foryears, then used this victory for big spe-

cial interest groups to stop any hope for

future energy development in the Arctic.

Once again, Obama is playing directly

into Russias hands.

The Department of Justice has created a

Domestic Terrorism division. This is

being done after the DOJ previously la-

beled Libertarians, Conservatives and

Constitutionalists as militia-inspired

domestic extremists.

A fter a 15-year period with theDemocrats not focusing on theissue of guns in presidential politics,

they are now talking about the issue.

They say support for new gun laws is

broader now and the politics of the

issue has shifted enough to make the

push for the measure a political win-

ner, even if there remains almost no

chance for success in Congress. Re-

publicans say that they are eager for

the Democrats to test the theory.

Newly releases federal data shows

that taxpayers have paid out a record

$3.25 trillion in taxes during fiscal

year 2015, but the government still

ran a massive deficit during that

time. The taxes that came in

marked an 8% increase and was the

highest amount on record. The totalwas $228 billion over the total re-

ceipts for fiscal year 2014. Most of

this tax money came from individu-

als. FYI the U.S. debt limit will

run out on November 3rd two days

sooner than was anticipated.

The Interior Department has an-

nounced a freeze on oil and gas drill-

ing in the Arctic Ocean off Alaska

until 2017. They said they were can-

celling future lease sales and will

not expand current leases. While

The Princess Anne Republican

Womens Club was formed in 1989 to ac-

commodate working women, as well as

those who preferred an evening meet-

ing. The original club applied to the Virgin-

ia Federation of Republican Women for ourcharter with twelve members and met

at the Life Federal Savings and Loan build-

ing on Laskin Road.

Jean Ford (deceased) served as the first

president and has been followed by many

capable leaders.

The PARWC has tripled in membership,

small in comparison to many clubs, but we

boast that we have one of the most active

clubs with members attending every meet-

ing and participating in our activities. Our

program emphasis is on political education.

Over the years, we have held a number of

fund raising events, most notable our annu-

al sale of the White House Historical Socie-

ty Christmas ornaments. Our largest fund

raiser is the Star Spangled Ball which is

jointly sponsored by the four Virginia

Beach Republican Womens Clubs. Two

thousand fifteen is the 26th Star Spangled

Ball. The monies earned are divided equal-

ly among the clubs and are earmarked to

support our Republican candidates.

VFRW-

Republican women are the backbone for Republican

party campaigns. Involved in many levels from letter stuff-ing to phone banks to writing opinion/policy pieces to run-

ning for office. Our goal is to provide the opportunity for

women from all age groups and walks of life to actively

participate in the political arena on national, state and lo-

cal issues. We promote political awareness and recruit

qualified candidates. We encourage women to assume lead-

ership roles in government, the Republican Party, and

in the community as policy planners, decision makers,

and potential candidates. Virginia is the 6th largest feder-

ation in the National Federation of Republican Women,

Current President is Linda Barlett
