ABOUT
THE VIDEO
The
NFRW's “I am a Republican!” video is a public
relations tool featuring a diverse group of more than 45 Federation members
and Republican women leaders such as Lynne Cheney, U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey
Hutchison and former EPA Administrator Christie Todd Whitman. The final
product is a three-minute, upbeat video anchored at the beginning and end
with information about the NFRW and its mission. In the core of the video,
participants explain the commonly-held beliefs of Republicans and pledge
with enthusiastic voices their allegiance to the GOP.
PURPOSE OF THE VIDEO
Demonstrating the diversity of the NFRW and the accessibility of the
Republican Party, the video illustrates to women from all walks of life
that our organization’s members share their values and beliefs, and that we
want them to join us in the cause of good government. It is an open
invitation to women everywhere and communicates a powerful message: no
matter who you are or where you come from, there is a place for you in the
NFRW and in the Republican Party.
OUR GOALS
Our goals are to raise the Federation’s name identification and to give our
organization more credibility with the public, thereby increasing our
membership, boosting our profile and electing more Republicans.
STATES,
