Call our Representatives this week. Tell them to support the Senate Budget that supports K-12, supports business and does not raise taxes.

Ask them to not support the House Democrat Budget that with Governor Inslee’s lead will raise taxes by 1 billion. Ask where that extra 1 billion will come from. The answer is your pocket, your home, your vacation,etc.Interesting since the Governor promised in his campaign not to raise taxes. See video below.

Levi Rawls and Michelle Loftus traveled to Richmond, Washington this weekend to meet with other State Republican leaders. The big news is that in our non presidential race cycle we will host a Training Conference instead of a Delegate Convention. The Conference Committee will meet and release details soon. Training and informational workshops will be combined with entertainment to boost our party toward being helpful in our communities and effective in our elections.Opposition to this change involved the fact that we will continue our platform forward to the next cycle without further input.A majority of us decided it would be good to shake things up a bit and try something new.

Levi sat on the WSRP Executive Board as proxy and led the prayer before the Friday evening meeting. With my seat on the Executive Board, San Juan County solidly represented Region 5 NW Washington.We shared ideas and came home with many.We also visited Arlene’s Flowers, the business being sued by Washington State for not providing flowers for a same sex marriage ceremony.Many bought flowers from Arlene’s to show support of Arlene’s religious freedom. If you would like to contribute to her legal fund contact the Family Policy Institute of Washington www.FPIW.org and search for “Team Arlene’s”.You can also call Atty Gen Bob Ferguson’s office 360-753-6200 and ask him to drop the suit in respect to Arlene’s religious freedom.

State Chair Wilbur is working to support Republican Candidates for November’s local elections as well as Jan Angel’s run for the Leg District 26(Port Orchard)State Senate seat.She is presently in the House seat but the Senate Majority will be strengthened with her election. Chair Wilbur is also planning for elections of 2014 and 2016.He is confident that as our races have become closer and that the national scene is fraught with scandal we will see victories in 2013,2014 and 2016.He also mentioned congratulations to San Juan County’s Council Election results.

More Conference 2014 details to come…..

New poll numbers out from the Gallup polling organization show that Barack Obama’s job approval ratings are plunging.  At the time Obama was sworn into office for his second term, more people approved of Obama’s job performance than disapproved by 17%.  There has been a dramatic reversal and as of this week more Americans now hold an unfavorable view of Obama. Friends, the truth about the Benghazi terrorist attack – and the Obama administration’s lies and cover up – is finally starting to leak out, bit-by-bit and it is having a profound effect on Obama’s poll numbers. But we have so much more to do to get the truth out.  We are pleased to announce today that Washington, D.C. will mark the first media market where we will be beginning our new TV ad campaign exposing Obama’s lies and cover ups.   We picked Washington, D.C. as our first market to air these ads to keep this issue before the media and the politicians.  Obama wants to sweep this under the rug, but with your support we aren’t going to allow that to happen.

Presently the county is working on the County’s Comprehensive Plan. There are many elements to this plan that you can read when you need help sleeping. However, there are some action filled sections to keep you awake- maybe all night.Please refer to the San Juan County Website’s Community and Development-Long Range Projects List or follow this link http://bit.ly/14hJHPW

The Comprehensive Plan is a guide to our future county government.Read what you can and decide what is good and what is missing. The Transportation Element had my attention today.I think we have been effective in removing the additional county licensing requirements for Susie’s Mopeds (she is already paying State License and following guidelines for safety and education as a responsible successful businesswoman).Additional financial burden on our local businesses is not necessary and counterproductive.

Read the trails section(about page 40)and comment. Do you see any mention of property owner’s consideration? Hmmmm. I didn’t see it either so that’s an area we should make comment about.

Contact our new council members and let them know your ideas about our county’s future.See above page for County Council contact information.

Nationally we are seeing liberal leadership exposed on the Benghazi event, the IRS attack on conservatives and the DOJ email surveillance of the Associated Press. The horrific Philadelphia abortion doctor was even sentenced for murder this week. What more do people need to convince them that the present liberal leadership and social movement is fraught with corruption and immorality? What will we present to replace it? We must be prepared to replace leaders who have no moral compass or pride in America.We must give worth again to the truth and life even though many will continue to “see blindly”.Pray for America now.Pray for honorable leaders now.Pray for those of us fighting now.
