The Monday, February 19, 2018 Regular Meeting of the Galveston County Republican Party at 7:00pm is being moved to the Calder Road Annex, 174 N. CALDER DRIVE, LEAGUE CITY, TX 77573

Because tomorrow is a county holiday, we will not be able to use the mid-county annex as planned to hold our meeting tomorrow night. There will not be anyone available to open the building for us.

We are therefore moving our meeting to the Calder Road Annex. A revised agenda with the new location is attached for your reference. I apologize for the late notice. Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

2018 Republican Primary Ballot Propositions

2018 Republican Primary Ballot Propositions

The State Republican Executive Committee approved placing eleven propositions on the March Republican Primary ballot at its quarterly meeting this Saturday. The propositions are non-binding, meaning they do not create laws. However, they are a proven, effective way to poll Republican voters on various issues and inform elected officials on where those voters stand.

Republican Party of Texas Chairman James Dickey issued the following statement:

“The SREC deliberated and delivered eleven propositions to place on our Primary ballot. We look forward to hearing from our voters on these issues and to sharing the results with lawmakers. Whatever the results, we will continue working towards making our principles a reality.”

Here is the full list of ballot propositions submitted by the SREC for inclusion on the 2018 Republican General Primary Election ballot:

  1. Texas should replace the property tax system with an appropriate consumption tax equivalent. Yes/No
  2. No governmental entity should ever construct or fund construction of toll roads without voter approval. Yes/No
  3. Republicans in the Texas House should select their Speaker nominee by secret ballot in a binding caucus without Democrat influence. Yes/No
  4. Texas should require employers to screen new hires through the free E-Verify system to protect jobs for legal workers. Yes/No
  5. Texas families should be empowered to choose from public, private, charter, or homeschool options for their children’s education, using tax credits or exemptions without government constraints or intrusion. Yes/No
  6. Texas should protect the privacy and safety of women and children in spaces such as bathrooms, locker rooms, and showers in all Texas schools and government buildings. Yes/No
  7. I believe abortion should be abolished in Texas. Yes/No
  8. Vote fraud should be a felony in Texas to help ensure fair elections. Yes/No
  9. Texas demands that Congress completely repeal Obamacare. Yes/No
  10. To slow the growth of property taxes, yearly revenue increases should be capped at 4%, with increases in excess of 4% requiring voter approval. Yes/No
  11. Tax dollars should not be used to fund the building of stadiums for professional or semi-professional sports teams. Yes/No
