THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT
It's been my honor to serve as the local Republican Chair for this important year. I am inspired by the optimism in the air and the gathering of the White House, House of Representatives and Senate under one Party. I do believe better days are ahead for the country.

Thank you for your support and friendship - we've accomplished a lot in an area not known for it's embrace of moderate and conservative values.
There's much left to do, as always, and I, like you, stand ready to help our new leadership, our soon to announce 2026 candidates for local and state office, and our federal administration as they grapple with the issues and opportunities of 2025 and beyond.
All the best, and thanks for your support.
Dennis Melby
2024 MCGOP Chairman

President-Elect Donald Trump is on his way to becoming the 47th U.S. President. At the 2024 Republican National Convention, his granddaughter Kai said “A lot of people have put my grandpa through hell. And he’s still standing.” “The media makes my grandpa seem like a different person, but I know him for who he is. He’s very caring and loving. He truly wants the best for this country. And he will fight every single day to make America great again.” So, what will he face?

How Biden Screwed the Steelworkers 1/3/2025
Japan, one of our closest allies, wanted the deal. So did Pittsburgh steelworkers and members of the president's cabinet. So why did he block it?
By Ethan Dodd
Back in April, when President Joe Biden was still running for reelection, he told a gathering of steelworkers in Pittsburgh that “I have your back.” On Friday afternoon, just three weeks before leaving office, he stuck a knife in their backs.

MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD!
The Maryland General Assembly passes thousands of bills every year that impact our daily
lives. Each session is only 90 days; this year it begins on Wednesday, January 8, and ends on Monday, April 7.
In recent years, the Assembly has been passing increasingly Left-leaning bills. This unfortunate situation arises from the fact that the Democrats have a supermajority in the Assembly: Out of 47 Senate members, only 13 are Republicans; out of 141 House members, only 39 are Republicans. Therefore, even when we had a Republican in the Governor’s seat, the Assembly could override his vetoes. That is how we became a Sanctuary State for illegal immigrants a few years ago.
In order to prevent the worst legislation from passing (and help positive bills pass), we must advocate while the bills are still being heard in their respective committees. That is how, for example, we have managed to keep the absurd ranked choice voting bills from becoming law.
Please join us in this advocacy work! The best way to do so is to subscribe to MFRW Legislative Chair Ella Ennis’s email list ([email protected]) and to answer our calls to testify and write letters for and against upcoming bills. We will help you! For more information, please contact Legislative Chair Amy Waychoff at [email protected].

ALL ABOARD!

By Lori Jaffe
On November 5, 2024, our country decided that they had seen enough of the Left’s policies, and they voted to return to normalcy. After the election results came in, President-Elect Donald Trump called for all Americans to come together. “This will forever be remembered as the day the American people regained control of their country.” “It was a historic realignment uniting citizens of all backgrounds around a common core of common sense.” As we get ready to start a new year, we see many on the Left appear to be moving toward Trump. Some appear to be embracing normalcy while others want to remain relevant. The Left is not disputing his win as he won both the electoral college and the popular vote.
