WHY WE GIVE TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD FOOD PANTRIES

Hunger and food insecurity exist. While we consider ourselves a wealthy area, not everyone in our community is, and some folks (particularly kids) are in difficult circumstances. Some need temporary help. As Republicans we believe in helping our neighbors - not to keep them dependent - but to give them a hand up. In addition to the high taxes we pay, we do even more. Thanks for your generosity.


READ OPT-OUT RULING

It's the first day of public school in Montgomery County. Kids and Parents are adjusting from the summer and getting back into the school day routine. We're full of anticipation and hope that this school year will lead to greater opportunities for learning, a chance to achieve excellence, fulfillment and safety.

MoCo parents are continuing their fight to be able to opt-out their K-5 kids from lessons they deem harmful. The judge hearing the case has a preliminary ruling that there'll be no opt-out ability by the parents, the parents promise an appeal.  Read the story on the ruling HERE>

THE LEFT AND THEIR HATRED OF YOUNG MOMS

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.

THE KIDS HAD A BLAST AT THE LD15 PICNIC

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.


MOCO YR MASS RALLY SEPTEMBER 6

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.


Biased Piece by Jewish Men's Club

By Brad Botwin

This past July, the Federation of Jewish Men’s Clubs (FJMC) hosted their annual conference at the Marriott Hotel in downtown Philadelphia. Also sharing the venue was the Moms for Liberty (M4L) organization for their “Joyful Warriors National Summit”, which included guest speakers, former President Donald Trump, FL Gov. Ron DeSantis, former SC Gov. Nikki Haley, Cong. Byron Donalds and more.

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:

First GOP 24 Debate

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.
