The NFRW is co-sponsoring "Ready-to-Run," a day-long workshop to encourage and train women to run for elective office, position themselves for appointive office, work on a campaign, or get involved in public life in other ways.

As the nation remembers and pays tribute to First Lady Barbara Bush, the NFRW is republishing an article from the September/October 1988 issue of The Republican Woman magazine. The article is a snapshot of what was happening at a critical moment in the 1988 presidential campaign, offering a heart-warming and nostalgic glimpse of our vibrant, future First Lady, and reminding us of what was important to her and what motivated her.

Chartered in September 2013, the Kings Highway Republican Women’s E Club is the first “Virtual” club in the State of Virginia and the second nationally.

A virtual club is part of a State Federation of Republican Women and assembles, meets, conducts business, trains, and presents virtually. Outside of how the women meet or engage, there is no difference between virtual clubs and traditional clubs. At the State Federation level, there is no difference.

County primary elections are over. Now, going forward, we can wholeheartedly support our Republican county primary winners and work hard for their victory on August 2.
