On behalf of
President Raymond T. McKay, welcome to the website of the Rhode Island Republican Assembly. The RIRA is one of over forty chartered state affiliates of the
National
Federation of Republican Assemblies all across America. The NFRA
is an outgrowth of the very successful
California Republican Assembly. President Ronald Reagan
considered it to be "the Conscience of the Republican Party
©". Founded
in 1934, and dedicated to preserving the American way of life, it is our
nation's oldest and largest conservative Republican
grassroots volunteer organization. Comprised of
traditional Republicans, the NFRA is an independent grassroots
organization, dedicated to working within
the framework of the Republican Party, to
promote the active participation of our members toward the endorsement,
support, and election of principled Republican
candidates. The NFRA
serves as the national umbrella organization for all of the state Republican Assembly
®
organizations. Working to unite all
conservatives -- both economic and social -- whose interests range from tax
cuts and reform to national defense, from Pro-Life to education concerns,
from Second Amendment to national sovereignty, to advance traditional
conservative Republican values. Our primary goal is to ensure that the Republican Party does not turn
away from the enduring values and solid conservative principles championed
by
President Ronald Reagan. Join with us today. President
McKay would like to remind the membership that annual dues
are now due. If you are already a RIRA member, you now have the
option of paying your annual dues by credit card or e-check
directly through our website. In order to do so, click the
"DONATE" icon on the upper left side of this page, which will direct you
to our secure payment processor. Potential RIRA members should complete a
Membership Application and
mail it to us with applicable annual dues for consideration. The next General
Meeting of the Rhode Island Republican
Assembly is scheduled
for
Thursday, August 7th, 2008 at 6:30pm. This meeting will also
serve as our Biennial Endorsement Convention. The meeting will be held in the
Banquet Room at Bickford's Family Restaurant at 24 Jefferson Boulevard
in Warwick, RI (Exit 15, off Interstate 95). Our monthly dinner meetings are
open to all Rhode Island Republicans. However, we encourage regular
attendees to become paid members. You pay for your own meal. Please

Assembly.
Thanks to our friends
from the
California Republican Assembly, for the first time ever available
online, is the complete speech that former President
Ronald Reagan gave
to the CRA after he and First Lady Nancy Reagan had been the recipients of
the CRA’s Man and Woman of the Decade
Award back in 1993. In one of his last
recorded speeches, President Reagan took the time to reflect on his terms as Governor of California and
as President of the United States, and the important role that the Republican Assembly
®
played in his historic victories. So much of what he said back then is still
very applicable today. “It was here that we planted
the seeds for what became known as the Reagan Revolution,” Reagan said. “I
really never thought of myself as a revolutionary. After all, we weren’t
trying to overrun the government. We were merely trying to keep the
government from running over us.” The Annual Convention of the Rhode Island Republican
Assembly was held on Thursday, April 12th, 2007. That meeting
also served as our Biennial Election Meeting. At that meeting,
we elected new general officers for the
2007-2009 term; made several necessary revisions to our bylaws; and
discussed plans for upcoming events. In addition, we discussed a number of
initiatives, welcomed new members and special guests, and discussed various
ways of getting our grassroots conservative message out to a broader audience in Rhode
Island. We hope that you will find this website
informative and will visit it often. As this website is updated
regularly, please feel free to contact the webmaster
in order to submit any suggestions, make comments, or to report any broken links. Thank you very much for visiting our website. We hope
that you will return soon. May God Always Bless
America!

PRESIDENT RONALD REAGAN
"QUOTE OF
THE DAY"
"You and I have a rendezvous with
destiny. We will preserve for our children this, the last best hope of man
on earth, or we will sentence them to take the first step into a thousand
years of darkness. If we fail, at least let our children and our children's
children say of us we justified our brief moment here. We did all that could
be done."
