Dear Members and Friends,
As we reflect on this past election, I know many of us are feeling disappointed and perhaps even discouraged by the results here in Chandler, throughout Arizona, and across our nation. The outcome was certainly not what we had hoped or worked so hard to achieve.
But I want to remind everyone of something very important: One election does not define our future, and one setback does not diminish our purpose.
We are Republicans because we believe in something bigger than an election. We believe in freedom, personal responsibility, strong families, opportunity, safe communities, and the values that make our country great. Those beliefs do not change because of an election result.
Now is the time to take a deep breath, lift our heads, and look forward. Rather than becoming discouraged, let’s become even more determined. Let’s listen, learn, reconnect with our communities, encourage new voices, support our candidates, and work together to build a stronger Republican Party.
Our club is an important part of that future. Every meeting we hold, every conversation we have, every volunteer hour we give, and every woman we encourage to become involved makes a difference. Never underestimate the power of women who are willing to stand up, speak out, and make a difference.
I truly believe that brighter days are ahead. The road to success is not always easy, but our commitment to our principles and to one another must remain strong.
While we recognize that the election brought some disappointing results for Republicans across the country, we also have reason to celebrate here in Arizona. Please join me in extending our heartfelt congratulations to Sheriff Mark Lamb on his election to the U.S. Congress! We wish him great success! Also, we will be extending an invitation to him and his wife, Janel, to our upcoming festive holiday gathering on November 17. It would be a wonderful opportunity to celebrate his achievement and for all of us to enjoy an evening of friendship and holiday cheer. This will be our last meeting. There is no meeting in December.
As we enter the holiday season, I am especially grateful for each of you. Thank you for your friendship, your dedication, your enthusiasm and your willingness to keep showing up. It is because of members like you that our club continues to make a difference.
Let’s move forward with renewed energy, optimism, and determination. Our work is not finished, our voices still matter, and our best days can still be ahead of us!
With Gratitude and Republican Spirit,
