Republican Women Will Support Republican Presidential Nominee
ARLINGTON, Va. – More than 150 Republican women leaders from across the nation gathered at the National Federation of Republican Women’s (NFRW) spring board meeting in Arlington on March 17-19, where they pledged to come together during the general election to support the 2016 Republican presidential nominee.
The NFRW board unanimously adopted a resolution calling on members to actively support and work to elect the 2016 Republican nominee for president, as well as all Republican candidates for federal, state and local office.
“The NFRW and its members have a 78-year track record of coming together in unity following a competitive primary campaign season, and this year will be no different,” NFRW President Carrie Almond said. “We are united and have a common purpose: to completely reverse course and end the failed policies of President Obama and the Democrats. The way to accomplish this is to send a Republican to the White House, and we will enthusiastically, wholeheartedly stand behind our party’s nominee.”
Founded in 1938, the NFRW has thousands of active members in local clubs across the nation, making it one of the largest women’s political organizations in the country. The grassroots organization works to promote the principles and objectives of the Republican Party, elect Republican candidates, inform the public through political education and activity, and increase the effectiveness of women in the cause of good government.
