Help Elect a Republican in Massachusetts!

 
On  January, 19, 2010, a special election is being held to fill the Massachusetts Senate Seat of the late Ted Kennedy.   MA State Senator Scott Brown is the Republican candidate running to represent his state during a critical time in Washington. 
 
Sue Lynch, NFRW President, issued a challenge to Republican women, "I encourage every Republican woman from the East Coast to the West Coast, from North to South, to find a way to get involved in the effort to elect Scott Brown to the United States Senate.   We need his leadership more than ever before in Washington." 

They need our help.  There are many ways to get involved... you can make phone calls from the comfort of your own home or even take a trip to MA for their 96 hour get out the vote push! 

If you are interested in getting involved with the campaign, please visit http://www.brownforussenate.com/ for more information on these opportunities.
 
If you have questions, please contact political@nfrw.org
 
 Let's help break the Democrat's majority in the Senate!
 

Keep the Heat on Health Care!

 UPDATE: As you may be are aware, the Democrat majority in the Senate passed health care reform legislation  in a 60-39 vote on December 24, 2009.  The differences in the Senate and House versions of the bill are now being resolved in order to send a final version to President Obama.  The merged bill will have to be approved by both chambers before it is sent to the President.
 
It is critical to continue to let your voice be heard on this issue, especially in the midst of a negotiation process that continues to be completed through secret deals and back room discussions. 
 
Make YOUR voice heard on health care reform! Every phone call, letter, email, fax, etc. counts!
