Welcome
Our hearts are heavy as we reflect on the tragic loss of Charlie Kirk, a true patriot and devoted leader and founder of Turning Point USA. The memorial service on Sunday, September 21st was a powerful reminder of his impact on our movement and our nation. President Donald J. Trump, Vice President JD Vance, members of the Trump Cabinet, numerous members of Congress, and Charlie’s beloved wife, Erika, all shared moving tributes that honored his legacy of faith, family, freedom, and courage.
For those who were unable to join us, we encourage you to watch the beautiful service here.
We invite all members and their guests to join us for our upcoming Mesa Republican Women Luncheon on Monday, October 13th. This month, we will be focusing on mental and physical health with a special program: MAHA – Make America Healthy Again. Together, we will explore practical ways to strengthen body, mind, and soul so that we can continue the work of preserving freedom and building strong communities.
God Bless America and God Bless the Kirk Family and Turning Point USA,
Ashley Trussell
President, Mesa Republican Women
