A Heartfelt Thank You


John,



As I return back to my professional field, I want to take this final
opportunity to express a heartfelt thank you to each of you. Serving as State
Party Chairman has been one of the greatest honors of my life.

Together, we’ve strengthened our party, achieved historic victories, and laid
the groundwork for continued Republican success. From reaching hundreds of
thousands of voters to supporting candidates up and down the ticket, our
teamwork and commitment has made a real difference.

I know our interim-Chair, Erin Lucas, will continue to do an amazing job
leading our party forward. Her dedication to our party is exactly what we need
to build on our momentum and prepare for the future.

Thank you for trusting me, working alongside me, and giving me the opportunity
to serve. I leave this role filled with gratitude, knowing our party is in
great hands.



Thank you all for what you do!
