The New York Young Republican Club, the largest and oldest Young Republican chapter in the United States, is proud to announce official cooperation with Lega Giovani, the youth wing of the Lega party in Italy.
Lega, led by Matteo Salvini, is the top-polling political party in Italy. It espouses a populist-conservative platform promoting many of the same themes as President Donald J Trump, such as halting illegal immigration and resisting the rising tide of globalism.
The New York Young Republican Club and Lega Giovani believe that forging new ties between like-minded patriotic youth movements around the world is necessary and beneficial to counter the Left’s growing international networks. Our cooperation will bring our respective nations closer together, and we will collaborate to counter the international threat to Western civilization.
Over 1.3 million Italians and Italian-Americans live in the New York City metropolitan area. As part of this cooperation, the New York Young Republican Club will assist Lega Giovani in outreach to New Yorkers of Italian origin who are eligible to vote in the next Italian election.
Furthermore, both the New York Young Republican Club and Lega Giovani recognize the special significance of Christopher Columbus statues in the United States to Italians and Italian-Americans. As part of its ongoing efforts to preserve American heritage, the New York Young Republican Club will seek to preserve and protect these statues from the radical mobs intent on destroying our shared heritage and rewriting our history.
The New York Young Republican Club and Lega Giovani look forward to conducting joint events in the near future as part of what both organizations hope will be an extensive and constructive relationship.
