Chairwoman Elise Stefanik Breaks Previous Fundraising Record

This week Chairwoman Elise Stefanik announced she’s broken her own fundraising record! Elise raised over $7.3 million in Q2 of 2024, with an average donation of $22 to her campaign with over 65,000 unique donors. Thank you so much to all our supporters, we couldn’t do our jobs without patriots like you supporting us.

Chairwoman Stefanik’s statement:

“I am humbled by the record support from Team Elise donors and supporters in Upstate New York and across the country. Under President Trump’s leadership, the America First movement has never been in a stronger position to achieve total victory in the fall. I will continue to work tirelessly to help elect President Trump, protect and expand our House Republican Majority, flip the Senate, and ensure Republican victories up and down the ballot in New York. 119 days until we all get to the polls to save America. Let's go!”

Chairwoman Stefanik to Speak at RNC Convention

As a top surrogate for President Trump, Chairwoman Elise Stefanik will be a featured speaker at next week’s Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. President Trump will accept the GOP nomination on Thursday, July 18, as the strong, unified Republican Party prepares to defeat Far Left Democrats by historic margins this November.

In a statement to the New York Post, Elise said:

“I am honored to be speaking at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. This November is the most important election in our lifetime and Americans across the country are united behind President Donald J. Trump’s America First agenda which created the greatest economy in generations, the most secure border in modern history, the lowest gas prices in years, and peace through strength.”

2024 RNC PLATFORM

This week the 2024 RNC Platform was agreed to and released ahead of the convention next week. President Trump's bold vision to make America great again has united our party like never before, giving us the playbook needed to expand our majority in the House, retake the Senate, and reclaim the White House. These are some highlights:

AN AMERICA FIRST ECONOMY

The draft platform offers a marked change from the globalist policies of the Republican Party of old.

“Common Sense tells us clearly that if we don’t have Domestic Manufacturing with low Inflation, not only will our Economy—and even our Military Equipment and Supplies—be at the mercy of Foreign Nations, but our Towns, Communities, and People cannot thrive,” it states, adding: “Republican Party must return to its roots as the Party of Industry, Manufacturing, Infrastructure, and Workers.”

Addressing American energy, the draft document echoes Trump‘s calls to “unleash American Energy” as part of an effort to reduce inflation and ensure the nation’s energy independence.

Additionally, the platform’s pro-energy and pro-worker tone will likely help bolster President Trump’s growing support among union households—a voter demographic the campaign sees as crucial to its victory in November, The National Pulse reports. Sean O’Brien, the president of the Teamsters Union, accepted Trump‘s invitation to address the convention.

BORDER SECURITY

“If we don’t have a Border, we don’t have a Country.” The platform states that the Trump White House will complete the border wall and enact enhanced screening of immigrants entering the United States through other avenues.

The platform reinforces Trump‘s call to tackle the unprecedented number of illegal immigrants who have entered the country under Joe Biden through sweeping deportations. ”We will start by prioritizing the most dangerous criminals and working with local Police,” the document reads before continuing: “We must not allow Biden’s Migrant Invasion to alter our Country.”

CRYPTOCURRENCY

A Republican platform first, the draft addresses emergent technologies like cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence.

“Republicans will end Democrats’ unlawful and unAmerican Crypto crackdown and oppose the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency,” the document states. It adds: “We will defend the right to mine Bitcoin, and ensure every American has the right to self-custody of their Digital Assets, and transact free from Government Surveillance and Control.”

“We will repeal Joe Biden’s dangerous Executive Order that hinders AI Innovation, and imposes Radical Leftwing ideas on the development of this technology,” the platform reads, continuing: “In its place, Republicans support AI Development rooted in Free Speech and Human Flourishing.”

THE GOP IS THE PRO-LIFE PARTY

“We proudly stand for families and Life,” the pro-life plan begins. “We believe that the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States guarantees that no person can be denied Life or Liberty without Due Process, and that the States are, therefore, free to pass Laws protecting those Rights.”

“We will oppose Late Term Abortion, while supporting mothers and policies that advance Prenatal Care, access to Birth Control, and IVF (fertility treatments),” the platform draft concludes.

GOP Women Vote Against Biden’s Attack on Title IX

On Thursday, House Republicans passed House Joint Resolution 165 to overturn the Biden Administration’s changes to Title IX. Under the new Biden rule, nonbinary and transgender students would receive the same Title IX protections as biological women.

Rep. Mary Miller (IL-15), who introduced the legislation, stated –

“The House just passed my bill to protect girls' sports by blocking Joe Biden's radical Title IX rewrite. It's a great day for our daughters and granddaughters, who deserve protection from Biden’s radical attempt to force men into their private spaces & athletics.”

GOP Women Protect American Election Integrity

On Wednesday, House Republicans passed the SAVE Act, which requires individuals to provide proof of citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections.

Rep. Kat Cammack (FL-03) stated –

“American elections are for American citizens only. We know Joe Biden needs every vote he can get, which is why Democrats are so upset about the SAVE Act, which will protect our elections from foreign interference and require all individuals registering to vote to present valid documents and identification proving their citizenship IN-PERSON.”
