Chairman Message

 Welcome to our website!

 It has been my privilege to have served as your State Committeewoman for the last four years.  In that time, we have been able to grow our local party and learn many exciting things about the legislative process as well as our local government. Our REC has managed to change the face of the political process in Suwannee County with a super majority on the county commission, a new State Attorney, a new Congressman, as well as holding the seats of our State Representative and State Senator.  This was achieved by all of the hard work and dedication to our local party, but first and foremost because of a love of country and its principles.

Although I do realize we have a large task ahead of us, I do believe through prayer, dedication and education on the issues, we will persevere.  I look forward to serving as the Chairman of the Suwannee County R.E.C. and ask that you keep me in your prayers as we all forge ahead in our endeavor to restore our great nation.

Contact Your Representatives NOW

In the wake of the latest scandal in how many days? I urge everyone to email, call or write their representatives today.  I have contacted Yoho, Rubio and Nelson and demand that impeachment proceedings begin immediately. If public pressure is not sustained these issues will fade away. Here is a list of issues: Benghazi, 4 American's killed and the WH has continues to lie and cover up; IRS targeting conservatives, Jews and apparently anyone who dared to oppose Obama; the taking of the phone records of the Associated Press; and don't forget Kathleen Sebelius "asking" health care agencies to contribute to the implementation of Obamacare. 

Which is the most egregious? I personally can't decide. Losing 4 great Americans and doing nothing but lying, using the IRS to threaten anyone that might disagree with you, which violates the very core of American values our Freedom of Speech; Kathleen Sebelius's action in asking for contributions is code for government take over if you don't "contribute" not to mention completely illegal. As for the taking of the phone records of the Associated Press, personally, I think this is the least heinous because the press should know they are the first to go when dictators come to power and they have supported, omitted and covered for this administration since before he was elected.

Again, I urge everyone of us to contact our Representatives today and continue to contact them until the truth is told.

Letter from Marco Rubio Regarding Internet Sales Tax

Dear Ms. dEauede,

Thank you for contacting me in regard to online sales tax. I would like to take this opportunity to address this important issue.

As you know, on April 16, 2013, Senator Michael Enzi (R-WY) introduced the Marketplace Fairness Act of 2013 (S. 743). Currently, states are not allowed to require sales tax collection by out-of-state online retailers. This legislation would allow for state enforcement of sales tax collection by online retailers with greater than $1 million in sales, provided states take steps to simplify their sales tax system. 

 
County Commission Meeting 5/8/2013

Last evening was the first meeting the Board of County Commissioners held at the new time 6pm.  Needless to say, there were substantially more people in attendance as noted by the Commission. The efforts of the Board should be appreciated and not go unnoticed.  Citizens who complained the meeting times made it impossible for people who work, have children, etc to attend may now do so and last night proved they would come.

Another major change by the Board is they no longer require the Department Heads to come and make reports to the Board, they were told if they had information they wanted to share with the Board they were welcome to come and do so, but it was no longer mandatory. This does several things: 1. Department heads are hired to run Departments and having to sit for 4 hours or so twice a month to tell the Board what is happening in their world, when a written report would do is a waste of their valuable time; 2nd.  Having 6 people stand up and speak for 15 minutes or so increased the length of the meetings substantially.  Generally, there was nothing in their reports that required the action of the Board.

This additional hour and half also was another imposition on the Public.  Anyone who wants to know exactly what is going on at the Library may 1. Call the Library, look on the library website, or better yet visit the Library.  That goes ditto for every other Department. 

There were a few complaints about the format change, mostly from the folks who have the time to attend the meetings at their old time and could spend 4 hours in the mornings and afternoons, but unfortunately, that is not the majority of the people.  It should be the desire of the Commission to make the County Business accessible to the maximum amount of people and this clearly was accomplished by the attendance last evening. We applaud the Board for this move and their continued desire to turn the meetings into tightly run, business like meetings, that are held to accomplish the business of the County.

It is our hope that the interest continues.
