Support Our Troops
Rutherford County has contributed its men and women to serve our country all over the globe. We honor their service and support their efforts. We encourage every citizen to thank a soldier or veteran today. Without their selfless sacrifice we would not have the freedoms that we hold dear. May God bless each and every former and active duty American soldier and their families that support them while they serve our country.

Staying Connected
Republicans have always been very social, but like the rest of America we’ve recently discovered the power of digital social media. Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and YouTube are services we will use to inform you of our events, alerts and principles. We all like getting together but sometimes life is just too busy to have a barbeque every day, so we’ll tweet, post and update our status regularly.

Tea Party Movement
Controversy. Enlightenment. Courage. Those are some of the words used to describe what is known as the Tea Party movement. Some have accused Republicans of co-oping this movement. Tea Partiers are too independent to be co-oped. We understand that—but welcome any and all that want smaller government, traditional values and the Constitution to be the law of the land. We welcome all and need your input and help.

Today, Judi volunteers one day each week at the Rutherford GOP HQs. Thanks, Judi!
