August Meeting Cancelled
Dear 14th District Republicans,
I hope you have been enjoying your summer, the election and all the joys that come this time of the year!
Congratulations to re-elected precinct delegates and to our many newly precinct delegates.
We know that because the number of Oakland County delegate slots was decreased by directive of the Oakland County Chairwoman, many of you did not get re-elected.
For those not re-elected, we are not letting you go easily. We still need you to attend our meetings and conventions because we always need your counsel and always need alternates! This is especially true for the County Conventions coming up this week. It is likely that we will need activists to help fill out our allocation of delegates/alternates to attend the MIGOP State Convention on August 26-27 in Grand Rapids.
Please stay engaged with our GOP and stay connected- we have a presidential election to win and more!

Juneteenth and Freedom from Bondage
Juneteenth, also known as Juneteenth Independence Day or Emancipation Day, commemorates the announcement of the abolition of slavery in Texas in June 1865 and, more generally, the emancipation declared by President Abraham Lincoln. Celebrated on June 19, the term blends the words June and nineteenth, to create “Junteenth” which is a recognized state holiday or special day of observance in most states (including Michigan). We asked 14th CD Executive Committee member and former GOP candidate for U.S. Congress Christina Barr to offer her thoughts on Juneteenth 2015. See Christina’s thoughts at this link.
