The meeting is at 445 Herrick Avenue, Eureka near the golf course.
Call if you need directions.
You know that when you join Humboldt Republican Women, Federated, you are part of something much bigger - the California Federation of Republican Women (CFRW), and the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW), the largest womens political volunteer organization in the nation. We're in the middle of our Membership Drive and next month we welcome all our new members at our Spring Tea. We're always looking for fun, for new ideas to help us grow our membership, and are always thrilled to meet up with women from the other clubs. So there's no better time to meet our speaker, Dottie Linden. She's the 3rd Vice President of the Northern Division (our Division) of California Federation of Republican Women and loves to visit the various clubs throughout the state. She says, "Basically, my mission is to help energize, engage, and equip our clubs and members with knowledge and tools to grow our numbers and strengthen our voice at this pivotal point in our country's history." You know we all wear many hats over the course of time, and Dottie is no exception. She comes from the Sacramento Republican Women, Federated club, where she's served as President, Budget Auditor, and No Child Left Behind, Chair; served as CFRW - ND's Newsletter Contest Chair; and Regional Director for the Capitol Corridor. She's an Associate of the American River/Solano/South Placer/Virtual Patriots Associate (be sure to ask about Virtual Patriots) - and, like many of you, she's also served on her local Central Committee in Sacramento and Placer Counties. She's retired after spending 33+ years in Senior Management Marketing and Operations Positions at AT&T. She and her hubby, Ralph, live in Roseville and she laughs, "I love to spend time with family and travel whenever Im not up to my eyeballs as an advocate for Republican causes and the Childrens Receiving Home of Sacramento. Life is GREAT!!!"

THANK YOU
No-Bake, Bake Sale-- it was a great success and all without the mess! The Opportunity Drawing was another success and would not have been without your generosity !
I know. Right now youre wondering if Ive lost my mind using such an expression among conservative readers. No. Like everything else in life, theres a matter of interpretation and establishment of facts. Ive been through quite an Odyssey with you over the last year and a half, and youve opened my eyes to so many things. Whats on my heart currently is the need to grow our organization. Its not something that will happen because I share with you that it needs to be done. Its bootstraps on the ground. Its each one of us catching the vision, getting excited, and going out to bring back former members or go out and recruit new ones. Its knowing that by doing this, we increase our arm, which in turn brings new life, new ideas, and a growing vision to gather together to fight for freedom. What is this freedom? We already understand the vital need to rid ourselves of what we now have in Washington and in California; but what about freedom right here in Humboldt County? We have fine people who tend to be conservative running for office. With a population that is 72% democrat, it means that we need to come together as never before and drop our internal prejudices, former offences, and collaborate to build an organization that works like a machine. We must learn to collaborate and not cooperate. By that I am suggesting that we drop our personal agendas and come together to discuss our vision for the Party in general and build something totally new. To cooperate suggests that we must give something up in order to make the plan work. No. We need to share the wealth of ideas each of us has, see what is doable and practical, and then follow through with hard work toward our goals. What will our portion in this opportunity be? No longer can we excuse ourselves from this commitment. There is far too much at stake: the future of our community, state, and nation. Our Founding Fathers risked everything. We only need to sacrifice time and experience some convenience. The time is now. The cost is high. What are you willing to sacrifice for your freedom? Lets commit to bringing at least one friend to our next meeting and introduce them to our special group of people, the Humboldt Republican Women, Federated. Lets share our vision. When we grow, were stronger; and we share the load with the wealth that lies within each of us. See you March 20th! Blessings,
Please be looking for your 1040 Forms coming out next month as our April fundraiser. Remember our Membership Tea and we need many items for our Opportunity Drawing. Please be big-hearted in contributing to this event! Call me and I will arrange for items to be picked up. Thank you all,
FYIAprils fundraiser will be our 1040 Tax Return!!! Be looking for it in March!!! The HRWF Spring TEA will be on the 24th of April. Esther Holmes has graciously volunteered to hold the tea at her lovely home in Westhaven. The Irish Shop has also said that they would love to do the Fashion Show. Well keep everyone posted as to the details....ITS ALWAYS FUN!

Obamacare News:
Several stories in the Washington Times caught our eye, and received a lot of attention on Facebook. As the lies about Obamacare continue to add up, this latest one is quite disturbing: Dan Weber reports -
Playing Politics: New Obamacare delay would avoid more cancellations Friday before Election Day The Hill
Yes, another lawless ObamaCare delay; this one designed to help Democrats in midterm elections. Meanwhile: IJ Review reports on a Rasmussen poll on Obamacare:
33% say their insurance has changed. 40% view it favorably (down from 45% two weeks ago). 56% view it unfavorably (3/4 say its very unfavorable.) 58% say free market competition would do more to lower costs 33% say theyve been hurt.
All of these numbers show an increase in negative opinions and a decrease in positive ones.
You know him locally as the former editor of the Eureka Reporter, as the voice of Sunshine For Humboldt, and as the former Chairman of the Humboldt Republican Party Central Committee. Hes worked with the Party at every level, from the halls of Washington, D.C., all the way back to Humboldt County. His 11th book, Presidential Retreats, was published last year and his 12th will be published this fall. He is a regular columnist for The American Spectators online edition. (www.specator.org). We offer our heartfelt congratulations to this years Republican Of The Year, Peter Hannaford. The Republican Of The Year event is the brainchild of (HRWF member) Vee Sorenson, and is now a longstanding tradition in Humboldt County. And, in fact, as you look back over the list of honorees for both Republican Of The Year and Volunteer Of The Year, you often find HRWF members recognized for their work and dedication. This year, our own Annette De Modena is being honored as Volunteer Of The Year. The Republican Of The Year Dinner is March 29 at the Ingomar.
Thank

Humboldt Republican Women, Federated c/o Terry Roberts 4425 Chaffin Road McKinleyville, CA 95519
In 1878, U.S. Senator Aaron Sargent (R-CA) introduced in Congress the proposed 19th Amendment according women the right to vote. Over the next four decades, it was primarily the Democrats who would oppose the measure. Not until 1919, after the Republican Party won majorities in the U.S. Senate and the House of Representatives, did Congress approve what became the 19th Amendment.
A Republican Wrote The 19th Amendment Giving Women The Right To Vote.
REMEMBER
She became active in the successful state campaign for women's suffrage in 1910, which energized her and helped define her subsequent career, focusing on suffrage and then incorporating pacifist issues. The Republican Party played a leading role in securing women the right to vote. In 1896, the Republican Party was the first major political party to support women's suffrage.
A Republican, Jeanette Rankin from Montana, was the first woman elected to Congress in 1917.
And we have come a long way since then! We are featuring these and other stories all month long on our website and Facebook page.
