Volume 7 Issue 8

 
I can't believe this busy summer is coming to a close! It's even harder to believe November
Elections are right around the corner! And as busy as we are, as busy as we have been, our
work is not done. Our elected officials and candidates are counting on us to help them in these
final weeks. Block walking, phone banking, supporting their campaigns - it is all more important than ever. 

But I also encourage you to think about just talking to your neighbors. Your friends at church, People you come into contact with at the grocery store, the cleaners, the library, the gym. Are they registered to vote? With over a hundred homes sold every week in Williamson County, some of those families are new to the area. They moved here because they like the county the way it is. Republican! It's O.K. to remind them our great county got this way with the help of Republican Leadership. And then, help them get registered to vote!

Our work is not done. Every race is important. Don't slow down now. Together, we can do this. 

See you soon!

Rafael Cruz is a powerful example of the American Dream. Born in Cuba, Rafael lived and suffered under a cruel, oppressive dictator. He began fighting Batista's regime as a teenager and was imprisoned and tortured because he wanted to be free. Rafael arrived in Texas in 1957 with nothing but the clothes on his back and one hundred dollars sewn into his underwear. He got a job as a dishwasher, making 50 cents an hour, and worked his way through school at the University of Texas, while learning English. He later built a business in further pursuit of the American Dream. Rafael became active in conservative politics as a grassroots activist during the 1980 Presidential campaign of Ronald Reagan. He is an ordained minister, sharing the Word of God in churches and Pastors conferences through out the United States.

Our very own Congressman Carter joined us at our August luncheon. Due to the current crisis on the border, he gave an update on the situation saying the number of people now crossing illegally has gone up exponentially since May of 2012. That was when Obama, by executive order, said the US will no longer deport young illegal immigrants who meet certain criteria. To this Carter said "Obama was talking about those people who were already here, the world heard something else."

 
Quite simply put, Congressman Carter said the solution to the problem is to "enforce the laws."

Carter also spoke very passionately about the status within the GOP and where he believes we are going wrong. "If we don't stop fighting each other and stay fighting the democrats this country will be no longer. If we have 4 more years of a democrat in the White House this country, as we know it, will be no longer and this Party will dissolve."

Congressman Carter signed for dedication to the Round Rock Library David Horowitz's book Take No Prisoners!

At the conclusion of his presentation he left us with this, "don't let them (the democrats) take your fighting spirit away with political correctness!" 

Thank you Congressman Carter for sharing your time with us.
