RNC CHAIRMAN MICHAEL STEELE ANNOUNCES NEW COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR

WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele today announced the hiring of Doug Heye as Communications Director and the promotion of Katie Wright to Deputy Communications Director.

Heye, a veteran of Capitol Hill and political campaigns, served as a Communications Director in Steele’s 2006 U.S. Senate campaign and Senator Richard Burr’s victorious 2004 U.S. Senate campaign, as well as in similar roles in both the United States House of Representatives and United States Senate.

Wright, who has served in the committee’s press operation in both the current election cycle and the 2008 cycle, brings a wealth of experience and institutional knowledge to her new role.

“I’m proud to have Doug Heye join our team,” Steele said today. “His experience in campaigns and the halls of Congress brings a unique skill set to our communications operation. Both Doug and Katie will help our team as we move towards victory in November.”

Tomorrow's Alabama GOP 2010 Winter Dinner Featuring Tim Pawlenty Is Sold Out

ALGOP Dinner Sold Out, Conservatives ‘Fired Up’

Birmingham, AL – Friday, February 5th, the Alabama Republican Party will host its 2010 Winter Dinner at the Renaissance Hotel in Montgomery.  The event, featuring Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty, officially sold out last Friday and the Party is currently taking reservations for the waiting list.

Rep. Mike Hubbard (R-Auburn), Chairman of the Alabama Republican Party cites energy among conservatives as one of the reasons for the early sell out.

“There is no doubt that conservatives are fired up about sending a message to Democrats in November,” Hubbard said. “Folks are fed up with wasteful spending and corruption by the Democrat leadership, and Alabamians are rallying around our Party to ensure that their message is delivered.”

“We look forward to welcoming Governor Pawlenty to Alabama, and are pleased that he will be met with a packed house,” Hubbard added.

Baton Rouge, LA - The Southern Republican Leadership Conference (SRLC) announced today that Governor Bobby Jindal will address attendees at the convention in April.

Governor Bobby Jindal said, "We look forward to hosting folks from all across the South this April and showing them some of our famous Louisiana hospitality. Most importantly, SRLC will be a tremendous opportunity to highlight our state's incredible economic momentum, marked by announcements creating more than 34,000 jobs and more than $4 billion in capital investment in the last two years alone. We have reformed our ethics system, revamped our worker training system, and worked to improve our transportation system, all to become the best place for businesses to grow and succeed. The nation is taking notice that we are making a New Louisiana, and we want everyone to come here and see it for themselves."

“Governor Jindal has been a tremendous leader for the state of Louisiana,” SRLC Director Charlie Davis said. “His bold reforms and extraordinary vision have made him one of the GOP’s rising stars.”

Senator Rick Santorum to Address SRLC 2010

BATON ROUGE, LA - The Southern Republican Leadership Conference (SRLC) announced today that former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum will address
the 2010 SRLC in New Orleans.

"I am pleased to join the list of outstanding leaders who will speak at SRLC this year,” Santorum said. “We are at a turning point in American history: We can accept the liberal policies that have jeopardized American prosperity, or we can return to our roots of liberty and smaller government that have empowered Americans to achieve. SRLC will be an essential component in motivating leaders to take back our country,” he said.

“We are honored to have Rick Santorum join us in New Orleans,” SRLC Director Charlie Davis said. “Senator Santorum has long been an unwavering voice for the fundamentals of the GOP, and his leadership will be vital to ensure a comeback for our party and our principles.”
