New CCRP Exec Board Elected
I want to thank all of the PCOs and guests that came to the CCRCC Organizational Meeting this last Saturday. These meetings that are held for every county party across the state can sometimes be unpredictable, contentious and divided. That was not the case with ours.
I'm so grateful for everyone involved in the party that showed up. Everyone worked together in such a unified and positive way. We even had many moments of levity and laughter. Most importantly, we productively worked through our bylaws together effectively and efficiently as well as the election of the new board and LD directors.
I want to thank everyone for having the faith and confidence in re-electing me and Sally as your Chair and Vice-Chair again. It's our honor to continue serving this body.

Clark County Republican Party Statement on Semi Bird
CCRP provides statement to Clark County Today Monday
Ken Vance, editor
ClarkCountyToday.com - read here
The Clark County Republican Party’s (CCRP) endorsed candidate for governor of Washington state, Semi Bird, has come under scrutiny recently due to a number of documents that have been unveiled during his tenure serving our country.
Clark County Today Editor Ken Vance pleads with Republicans to focus more on winning the war with Democrats than the battle with each other.
“An unfounded narrative of ‘stolen valor’ has been the foundation of the allegations brought against him and has caused an unnecessary amount of time, effort and focus to address while he is busy campaigning to help fix our broken state,’’ read a statement from the CCRP provided to Clark County Today Monday.

Hello Warriors!
Thank you everyone who participated in my less than scientific survey on issues that matter the most to you. I received 50 surveys which was roughly half of the Central Committee attendees.
The number one issue for the LD’s as well as the body was the Border. 29 votes for immigration, illegals, border. I took the liberty to group them. Second for the body was 22 votes for Economy, third was a tie, 13 votes each for schools and election integrity.
Memorial Day
Fellow patriots,
As we gather with family and friends this Memorial Day, it is important to pause and reflect on the true meaning of this solemn day. Memorial Day is more than just a long weekend; it is a time to honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country.
Originally known as Decoration Day, Memorial Day began after the Civil War to commemorate the soldiers who died in that conflict. Today, it honors all American military personnel who have given their lives in service to our nation. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness have preserved the freedoms and values we hold dear.

Are Illegals voting in our Elections?
On May 8, Speaker Mike Johnson and other Republicans introduced a Bill to Protect Americans’ Right to Vote.
The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, legislation led by Congressman Chip Roy(R-Texas) in the House and Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah) in the Senate, would require proof of American citizenship to register to vote in federal elections.
A quick internet search all showed similar headlines dominating the news outlets on the subject, but a case in Clark County suggests the headlines could be misleading.

2024 WA State Legislator Scorecards
The Freedom Index has released it's 2024 WA State Legislator Scorecards - Based on the Principles of the U.S. Constitution.
Our CCRP bylaws mandate our support for Republican candidates who align with our core values and party platform.
Congratulations go to Senator Mike Padden from District SD-004 for achieving a perfect 100% score in the 2023-2024 legislative session, building on his previous flawless rating in the 2021-2022 term.
While some legislators excelled, others fell short of expectations. This variance prompts us to initiate open dialogues to address any discrepancies and enhance representation.
Reflecting on the scores, it becomes evident that there are opportunities for growth and improvement within our political landscape. Evaluating the performance of elected officials against our party's standards allows us to hold them accountable and encourages a culture of transparency and accountability in governance. As constituents, it is crucial for us to engage in discussions and feedback mechanisms that promote better alignment between our representatives and the values we hold dear.
Are these ratings satisfactory to you? Did your elected representative truly advocate for your interests? Do you know someone who may do a better job? Perhaps yourself? Contact the CCRP Candidate Vetting Committee and find out what it takes to be a candidate and truly represent We the People.
