Dear Friend,

Happy Spring! As the summer approaches we find ourselves in an election year with the GOP convention fast-approaching.

I am delighted to share that AFPI (America First Policy Institute) continues to grow as we plan for the next conservative administration. We recently brought onboard outstanding lawyers focused on election integrity and fighting against the weaponization of government. At AFPI we have dozens of former Republican cabinet officials, U.S. Ambassadors, and patriots who have served at the senior level in previous conservative administrations.

Recently AFPI has taken the top two floors at the Willard Hotel for our new headquarters. Our founder and CEO Brooke Rollins says that she is building a battle tank for the next 100 years. In a historic first since Richard Nixon, we are working with dozens of other conservative organizations throughout the nation so that we don’t duplicate our efforts during this election season.

In addition, we are actively working on a transition plan so that when President Donald Trump is re-elected in November, we will be better prepared to implement America First policies on day one. You can learn more about AFPI here ([link removed]) .

I believe we need to re-elect President Donald J. Trump in order to return our great country back to the land of opportunity, bring down inflation, and reestablish peace around the world. We know that from 2017 until he left office, inflation was below 2% and we were involved in no new foreign wars. President Trump led like Ronald Reagan, with peace through strength.

During the Trump presidency the Abraham Accords were established, ISIS was defeated, neither Putin nor Xi invaded their neighbors, and even North Korea was more peaceful toward us. This was a direct result of Trump’s strong leadership and historic diplomacy. President Trump’s policies secured our southern border. As a result of his historic trade negotiations (such as USMCA) and his Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, we had the best employment in 50 years for women and minorities, and the Forgotten Men and Women saw the biggest gains.

While on the campaign trail, President Trump has vowed to keep males out of female’s sports, which is really important to me as the mom of a daughter. He has also stated publicly that he will end DEI in our schools and in our military – where our children are failing to learn, and our military recruitment is down, with military services missing recruiting goals by 41,000 in the 2023 fiscal year. Unsurprisingly, our active-duty force is the smallest it has been since 1940. President Trump will end this DEI war on our readiness and education.

In the 2022 Pennsylvania Senate race, on election day, Democrat candidate John Fetterman had already banked about 1 million ballots during early the voting season. Republican candidate Mehmet Oz had banked about 250,000. Four to one Democrat to Republican. Democrats used every day of the 50 days of early voting to register voters, helped them with their mail-in ballots, and helped them vote early in person; every day was used. Republicans mostly voted on election day. We all know that Mehmet Oz came up short because Republicans did not vote early. In 2023 and 2024 it has been the same story. Many races and special elections were lost because Democrats voted early, and Republicans didn’t. In the special election in New York to replace Representative George Santos, Democrats voted early all 9 days of New York early voting. Republicans waited until election day, and there was a snowstorm. The Democrat candidate won.

Most states have early voting. Please see the handy chart below to help you vote early in your state. In Florida, Republicans have embraced early voting and Republicans are winning elections. Florida has gone from being a swing state to a solid red state. America First Policy Institute has a C4 arm called America First Works ([link removed]) . You can choose to join our telegram channel and learn how to get people registered to vote and to the polls. If you are a churchgoer or gun owner, I hope you will help register people to vote in this critical election.

Please see the table below for early voting information in every state. Vote on the first legal day either in-person or by mail if your state allows it. You can also call your county board election office for instructions. I urge you to review your county's and state's guidlines for mail-in voting and sign up today!

In a bit of personal news, my dear daughter graduated with her degree in Psychology and Business, and my precious parents are chugging along in Pennsylvania. A few weeks ago, I was part of AMAC’s and AFW’s (America First Works) “Bootcamp for Boomers” in Bucks County Pennsylvania. Bucks County is one of the key 19 counties Donald Trump needs to win in order to be re-elected President.

I have been busy pushing back against the Democrats’ war on American energy. America First policies offer an alternative of abundant and affordable American energy. Here are a few examples of my recent Op-Eds addressing this important issue.
* SEC shows dangerous commitment to ESG agenda - Washington Times ([link removed])
* Rejecting Calls for Carbon Taxes Is Common Sense | RealClearEnergy ([link removed])
* 'Bidenomics' is a disaster for American agriculture - Washington Times ([link removed])
* Biden's LNG pause earns another no-confidence vote from American energy industry - Washington Times ([link removed])


In closing, even if it’s not your favorite thing, I hope you will commit to voting early this year! Thank you for all that you are doing to save our country and for keeping the American Dream alive.

Warmly,
