Update from Chairman Dickey, June 2020

Dear Fellow Texas Republican,

I hope this update finds you and yours healthy and safe. It was another busy month for the Republican Party of Texas (RPT) as we held local Conventions across the state and prepared for our State Convention. The RPT continues to work diligently while also navigating the uncharted waters due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

In June, Senate District and County Conventions were held across the state. I had the opportunity to attend several conventions across the state. Thank you to our County Chairs and Temporary Convention Chairs for their hard work in executing these conventions while ensuring delegates safety.

RPT staff and the Committee on Arrangements has been working tirelessly to prepare for our in-person State Convention in Houston from July 16th-18th. In June, we held several State Convention Update Town Halls to provide updates and answer questions. If you missed the Town Hall, visit our YouTube channel to watch the updates.

I also had the pleasure of hosting zoom interviews with several of our Republican nominees. It was great to learn more about what has motivated them to run for office. If you missed the interviews, watch them here!

Vice President Mike Pence and Dr. Ben Carson visited the First Baptist Church Dallas for the Celebrate Faith and Freedom event.

This past month we also announced that we have successfully achieved our goal of registering 100,000 new Republican voters. By achieving the goal of registering 100,000 new Republican voters, the Republican Party of Texas is one huge step closer to electing Republicans from the White House to court houses all across Texas in November 2020! We are excited to have met our goal, but we still need YOUR help to continue to build toward victory in November! We have set a new goal of registering a total of 120,000 Republican voters. Join the RPT’s Volunteer Engagement Project to help us keep Texas RED!
