ABC News did another hit piece about the Moms for Liberty. They called them a far-right group and concentrated on the claims by the discredited Southern Poverty Law Center.

In the meantime M4L is standing for the rights of kids.

MCGOP will have a tent at the Kensington Labor Day Celebration from 10am to 2 pm. This is a great opportunity to meet potential voters and educate them about our principles.

Please join us to celebrate Labor Day and Republicans in Montgomery County!

Contact: Greg Decker  [email protected] or Brad Botwin  [email protected] 

If you could let one of us know that you can be there, that would be great!

Thanks!!

Saturday at Black Hills Regional Park in Boyds the Republicans of Legislative District 15 held their annual picnic. About 50 great republicans and friends, plenty of food and camaraderie and MCGOP Chairman Del Lamiman brought his little pony Jupiter. Kids love ponies, a good time was had by all.

Check out the notice in Events announcing a Mass Rally at MCGOP Headquarters September 6. Hear from a public school teacher about the questionable curriculum the teachers are forced by the Board of Education to impose on the kids in public school. You'll find this a riveting presentation.

Bring canned or non-perishable food items we can distribute to the local food pantry to help families in need.

The FJMC event supposedly focused on family, attracting younger members, fighting antisemitism, supporting Israel, and other non-political topics. However, reporting out of the event was anything but.  An article published in the Jewish Telegraphic Agency newsletter and then shamelessly republished in the Washington Jewish Week highlighted disparaging remarks from FJMC members, use of “Hitler” and “Nazi book burning” references, support for the sexually graphic version “Diary of Anne Frank”, and attacks on all conservatives and Republicans.

As a fellow Jew, and the new MCGOP Jewish Community Liaison, I was stunned and disheartened by the hateful energy expended by FJMC members.  What follows is my letter to the FJMC President regarding the event:

Whereas Katja Bullock immigrated to the United State from Germany in 1965

• Became an American citizen.
• Served the Administrations of US Presidents Ronald Reagan, George H. W. Bush, George W. Bush, and Donald Trump
• Served the Administration of Maryland Governor Larry Hogan
• Became a great wife and mother.
• Along with her husband Al Bullock served in many leadership positions for the Montgomery County Republican Party
• Most recently served as President of the Chevy Chase Women’s Republican Club,

Be it hereby resolved that we recognize her service to this Nation, this Party and this Community as a leader, a friend and patriot.

Passed unanimously August 22, 2023

Will former President Donald Trump show up at the first Republican Presidential debate in Wisconsin? Many people, both Republicans and Democrats feel the United States is in trouble, crime is spiraling out of control. Illegal immigration is fueling already desperate homeless numbers; violence is rampant across the country with more police officers being killed or injured in the line of duty; cost of living prices have sharply risen; food and energy inflation and public pessimism are rampant - and citizens are eager for demonstrable, reliable leadership.

The first televised debate featuring the most popular Republican candidates is Wednesday at 9 PM on FOX. President Trump so far has stated he won't participate, but there's a very diverse slate of candidates who will. Republican voters can compare old and young, male and female, people of different colors and religions - all offering their vision for a better America.

The MCGOP had a highly successful week at the 74^th Montgomery County Agricultural Fair and we thank all of you who stopped by to visit. We were there to encourage people to get involved and help us continue our quest towards positive change and outcomes at the local and state levels. We greeted thousands who passed our tent; raised awareness of the MCGOP and the 2T petition; met many new people of various faiths, ethnicities and political affiliations; and of course, got an earful from angry and frustrated MoCo residents and taxpayers. Some of the most popular questions were 1) How can I sign the 2T Petition?; 2) What is going on with MCPS?; 3) Why don’t the Democrats have a tent at the Fair? (because they are broke, owe the IRS back taxes and have a leadership crisis?); and, 4) Did you ever think you would see such corruption in our government?

The week was filled with both familiar and new faces and we did our best to encourage each other and share a laugh. There were also those moments that make time stand still such as the visiting Brazilian family each asking for a flag and then chanting “USA, USA” and a family whose three children serenaded us with the Star-Spangled Banner. We also were visited by some very impressive young conservatives who are trying to figure out these strange times and expressed how the school system has let them down. The good news is that they are very focused on charting their own path forward and not letting the social justice static deter them. TELL ME MORE>

Wednesday August 23 is Poll Worker Recruitment Day

In all the major democracies people watch each other to make sure the vote is fair and honest. Republicans have to do the same. Registrations in Montgomery County are almost 6 to 1 non-Republican. If there aren't enough Republican workers they'll still have the election, just pair up Independents with Democrat poll workers. Not the best option. We NEED folks to work.

Although these are volunteer positions they pay a stipend for the work. Though it’s typically a long day, shorter shifts and many different jobs are available. You should find something you can do - to help guarantee the vote is fair, all legal votes are counted and the ballots are secure. We NEED you.

Check HERE, see what you can do and sign up with the Board of Elections to help run a free, fair and timely election. Visit a MoCo Library on Wednesday August 23 to find more info.
