IRC REPUBLICAN PARTY CHAIRMAN
Jay Kramer
We have all been hearing the bad things the Democrats have been doing since Biden took office. I thought I would bring to your attention some things that are going right. I had the pleasure of seeing Ted Cruz last week at the Orange County Lincoln Day Dinner and he was adamant that the political pendulum is swinging away from the left and people are beginning to identify more and more with the Republicans. He said: "There are people around the country who might have voted for Biden, but they did not sign up for Biden's radical agenda . People are waking up and starting to see what's going on.....all across the country people are seeing that it does not make any sense. The left is angry. But we have a simple message of freedom." Ted finished by saying that we will see a great change in 2022. "It will be a fantastic year and 2024 is going to be even better."
Another great thing is our youth today. A great majority of the youth no longer watch television programming, meaning they are not watching CNN, MSNBC, or any other liberal affiliate. Rather social media is their main source of news. I was surprised to find out my children knew about the “Let’s go Brandon” movement before many adults knew. In fact, my son had a “Let’s Go Brandon” bumper sticker on his truck before I could get one ordered. Further it is of great comfort to know of the top seven songs on iTunes, four of them are about “Let’s Go Brandon” including the number one song by Tyson James. While we may not see it in our everyday lives, the youth are taking a stance on issues. We see it at sporting events, their musical choices and how they rebel against the liberal education system. The youth today do not want the Liberal Agenda and are showing their dislike for this current regime.
Let’s Go Brandon!

"The representatives of the people, in a popular assembly, seem sometimes to fancy that they are the people themselves, and betray strong symptoms of impatience and disgust at the least sign of opposition from any other quarter; as if the exercise of its rights, by either the executive or judiciary, were a breach of their privilege and an outrage to their dignity."

REPUBLICAN NATIONAL COMMITTEE
Peter M. Feaman
National Committeeman for Florida
THE MAIN THING: RNC Launches New Ad Slamming Democrats’ Attacks on Parents
The Republican National Committee (RNC) released a new ad slamming Democrats’ plan to silence parents who want a say in their kids’ education. As Democrats continue to prioritize their political agenda over students, Republicans continue to fight for parents’ right to oversee their children’s education.
-
FOX News reported: “Republicans have contested that following nearly two years of strict COVID measures and arguments about the role of critical race theory in schools, parents want a greater say in their children’s education.”
Why this matters: “Democrats want to control our children’s education and silence parents who have an opinion.”
-
RNC Chairman Ronna McDaniel: “The American people know the truth – parents, not unions or bureaucrats, are best equipped to oversee their children’s education.”
How we got here: Biden and Democrats feel entitled to imposing their values and beliefs on your children.
-
Biden made the unprecedented decision to weaponize the Justice Department and FBI against parents who question their children’s curriculum.
-
Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland admitted this week DOJ launched probe into concerned parents
-
Democrat Virginia gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe claimed that parents shouldn’t be “telling schools what they should teach.”
Bottom Line: Republicans believe that parents—not government bureaucrats—are best equipped to understand their kids’ needs and that every child in America should have access to quality education, regardless of zip code.
Red State Rebound: Republicans Lead on Jobs
The data is clear: States with GOP leadership are showing stronger job recovery and lower unemployment. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics released state jobs numbers on Friday showing Republican policies work.
Jobs recovered:
- 17 of the top 20 states for jobs recovered from the pandemic are led by Republicans
- The top 14 states are all led by Republicans
Unemployment rate:
- 16 of the top 20 states with the lowest unemployment rates are Republican led
- The top 11 states with the lowest unemployment rate are Republican led
-
Nine states – all Republican – have unemployment rates at or lower than where they were before the pandemic began
The numbers don’t lie: Republican governors and legislatures continue to deliver commonsense, conservative economic leadership amidst the devastating policies of Biden's Build Back Broke agenda,” said RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel.
- "Red states continue to attract working families and small businesses alike with strong local economies and pro-small business policies.”
While blue state governors promote anti-growth policies that have kept businesses locked down and incentivized workers to stay home collecting unemployment, Republicans are delivering an economic recovery.
Making Inroads: RNC Opens Two New Community Centers
This week, the Republican National Committee opened two new community centers.
- Our Black American Community Center in College Park, Georgia opened on Wednesday.
- Our newest Hispanic Community Center opened in San Antonio, Texas. It’s the third such office we’ve launched in the Lone Star State.
Why this matters: The RNC is making inroads and investments in minority communities ahead of 2022.
-
Paris Dennard, RNC National Spokesperson and Director of Black Media Affairs, said: “We know that there are Black Republicans, and we are not a monolith when it comes to our vote bloc. And so, we use it as a place where people could come and get information.”
-
Jaime Florez, RNC Hispanic Communications Director, said: “This is the party of freedom and opportunities, and most Hispanics came to this country fleeing from those socialist ideas that we had in our countries.”
Key component of our strategy: Building relationships with minority communities Democrats have long taken for granted. Republicans are excited to take our message of freedom, economic opportunity, and family values to voters in every community across the country.
Track record: In 2020, Republicans netted 15 seats in the House of Representatives. In each of those seats that flipped to the GOP, the elected winner was either a woman, minority, or veteran.
GOVERNOR SUES BIDEN ADMINISTRATION
This week Governor Ron DeSantis announced a lawsuit against the Biden Administration’s order requiring employees of federal contractors to be vaccinated by December 8, following through on a promise to take legal action to stop federal overreach and making Florida the first state in the nation to hold the President accountable. The lawsuit seeks an immediate end to the unlawful requirement that federal contractors ensure that all employees have received a mandated injection. The Governor was joined at the announcement by Attorney General Ashley Moody, as well as Floridians who have faced or are facing consequences as a result of vaccine mandates. The lawsuit can be found here.
A day after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis announced he sued the administration over the vaccine mandate, several other states mounted multiple federal lawsuits against the Biden administration over its COVID-19 vaccine mandate for federal workers and contractors. As of late Friday, the total number of states suing the Biden administration over the mandate is 19. Texas sued individually in a federal court in Galveston. Another lawsuit, filed in a federal district court in Missouri involves Alaska, Arkansas, Iowa, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wyoming. Yet another lawsuit, filed in a federal district court in Georgia, involves Georgia, Alabama, Idaho, Kansas, South Carolina, Utah, and West Virginia.
Unity- Let's Work at it
As we approach the 2022 mid-term elections and the 2024 presidential election, and in light of the abject failure of the Biden administration, we know that the very survival of our republic depends on the outcome of those elections. Therefore, we must stay unified. Never lose sight of who our political opponents are… the progressive left Democrats who are taking our country off a cliff with the active help of Big Tech and the old-line national news media. Our fellow Republicans are not the enemy!

VETERANS DAY CEREMONY AND DEDICATION OF WW I MONUMENT
As part of the Veterans Counsel’s Veterans Day Memorial Ceremony a monument to honor World War I veterans will be dedicated on Thursday, November 11, 2021, on Vero Beach's Veterans Memorial Island in Riverside Park.
The monument will feature a statue of a World War I “doughboy” mounted on a four-foot pedestal. “Doughboy” is the nickname given to American soldiers in WW I. While there is some disagreement about the origins of the nickname, the general consensus is that it had something to do with doughnuts frequently handed out to American soldiers during the war.
The ceremony begins at 9:00 AM and is free to the public. People are reminded to bring their own lawn chairs and utilize ample parking within Riverside Park to attend this year’s event.
In the event of inclement weather, the ceremony will take place at the Vero Beach High School Performing Arts Center.
