The Penalties for Refusing To Participate In Politics

"One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors” – Plato

Every two years about 9,000 delegates are chosen to attend the Republican Party of Texas State Convention. We spend hours on the floor debating which legislation we feel is most critical to pass to retain Republican Leadership in Texas. We send these Priorities to our Republican Legislators and have, up until 2018, sat back and expected our elected officials to pass a significant part of our priorities. There was always the shrug of the shoulders with the excuse "We just ran out of time. We'll try again next session. Always "next time." Despite having been one of the top priorities for many sessions, Constitutional Carry was only passed after the 10,000 phone calls of grassroots activists refused to let up and finally made their synced voices heard did success happen in the last 87th Legislative Session with HB 1927.

We are working hard to make our voices heard and you can help.
