Letter to the Membership: Did House Republicans Sell Us Out?
Nothing better demonstrates the need for an NFRA and a robust Republican Assembly movement in every state than the “fiscal cliff” deal just passed.
Note well: nearly all the House Republicans voted against the deal, as did key Senators like Marco Rubio, Mike Lee, etc. The tax-and-spend nightmare is brought to you by the Dems: Obama, Reid, and nearly every single House Democrat. Boehner will get his come-uppance shortly.
Reagan’s House Heroes Stop Plan B
Against all the chorus shouted from the media and congressional bleachers — that he had failed by walking out on a bad deal with Gorbachev or recklessly fired striking air traffic controllers who were striking against federal law — Ronald Reagan never blinked. And the fact that he didn’t blink made America — and the world — an infinitely better place.
Throwing Conservatives Off the Fiscal Cliff
Conservatives are at a turning point. If they go along with a bad deal now they won’t be able to take a stand against it in the next two to four years. Obama wants to eliminate Republicans’ ability to thwart his actions. He’d be satisfied with no deal on the fiscal cliff or to get one that is a terrible deal for conservatives.
States Choose Own Paths With One-Party Governments
Next month, Republicans will have control in 25 states–covering about 53% of the U.S. population–and Democrats will control 15 states–or about 37% of the population. This presents an opportunity for citizens to observe whose ideas are most successful.
Republicans to Hold Most Governor Offices Since 2000
“The story is Republicans did well elsewhere, so it wasn’t a wholesale repudiation of the party,” even with a loss by Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney . . .
Obama’s Unfulfilled Promise of Change
A better way to put it is that Barack Obama has proved he can’t change Washington from the inside.
House Passes Resolution Rebuking HHS for Waiving Welfare Work Rules
The House on Thursday passed a resolution condemning the Obama administration for allowing states to bypass rules requiring that many welfare recipients actively seek employment as a condition for receiving the cash benefits. . . .
Obama Says He’ll be Taking ‘Executive Actions’ without Congress on ‘Regular Basis’ to ‘Heal the Economy’
“I’ve told my administration to keep looking every single day for actions we can take without Congress, steps that make government more efficient and responsive, and help heal the economy. And we’re going to be announcing these executive actions on a regular basis.”
Chief Justice Roberts, You Fox
The Chief Justice dodged the bullet. I think you can call him crafty, as Chief Justice John Marshall was crafty all those years ago when he wrote the decision for Marbury v. Madison.
Homestead Act of 1862
Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That any person who is the head of a family, or who has arrived at the age of twenty-one years, and is a citizen of the United States, shall be entitled to enter one quarter section or a less quantity of unappropriated public lands

The NFRA fights tirelessly to elect a strong, grassroots Republican Party leadership. The more they succeed, the more we’ll see real change in America.
As a famous Californian once said, “Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction.” That’s why, now more than ever, the National Federation of Republican Assemblies is looked upon as one of the preeminent guardians of Ronald Reagan’s legacy, providing a powerful, unwavering voice for conservative principles amid the pandemonium of modern politics. Their advocacy is vital to our party’s future.
When conservatives took back America’s largest Protestant denomination, the Southern Baptist Convention, from the liberal leadership which had hijacked it, we used the same strategies and tactics that make the NFRA so potent a force today. Those strategies worked flawlessly then, and they’ll work as conservatives assert themselves in the Republican Party today.
The Republican Assemblies are truly a force for renewal within the Republican Party.
I am honored to stand with the National Federation of Republican Assemblies, one of the strongest voices for conservative values and a revitalized Republican Party in America.
The NFRA has never been more important than it is right now. We no longer have the luxury to nominate Republicans who, once elected, undermine the principles of individual freedom and limited government that define our party. Republican Assemblies across the country have kept the conservative movement alive and the future of our party and of our country ultimately depends on their success.
When I was a high school student, Phyllis Schlafly’s book, A Choice, Not an Echo, was an important influence on my political direction. Today I support the NFRA for that same reason. The Republican Party must be more than just a cheaper, slower echo of the Democrats: it must be a distinct choice, for conservative values and for a future of freedom. If you long for that choice, then you should join the NFRA.
We need more people like you [the Republican Assemblies] who truly believe in the Constitution, in liberty and in standing up to an establishment that believes in neither.
