RSLC Releases ‘18 In ’18 Races To Watch – Hispanic Heritage Month Edition’

RSLC News:
 
WASHINGTON, D.C. The Republican State Leadership Committee (RSLC) Friday debuted its “18 in ’18: Races to Watch – Hispanic Heritage Month Edition.”
 
Comprised of the RSLC’s Future Majority Project (FMP) and Right Women, Right Now (RWRN) candidates of Hispanic heritage who are running for state-level offices around the country this year, these candidates are rising stars who will champion conservative policies while representing the full diversity of the nation.
 
The RSLC’s FMP and RWRN initiatives both aim to identify, recruit, and support new diverse and women candidates at the state level.
 
RSLC’s “18 in ’18” lists include new and targeted candidates on the ballot this November for the first time, as well as, Republican elected officials who have already achieved electoral success and are in competitive re-election bids.
 
“As a board member of the RSLC, I am incredibly proud of what the Future Majority Project has done to support Hispanic candidates who have made the decision to run for elected office and generously serve their fellow Americans. The 18 candidates featured in this edition of the “Races to Watch” list embody the emerging faces of the Republican Party and serve as a great example of the continuing contributions of the Hispanic-American community during Hispanic Heritage Month,” said former Governor of Puerto Rico and RSLC Board Member Luis Fortuño.
 
“Republicans at the state level would not be reaching historical highs, without the growing diversity of our party. As we celebrate the start of Hispanic Heritage Month, the RSLC is bringing attention to outstanding Future Majority Project (FMP) and Right Women, Right Now (RWRN) candidates of Hispanic heritage running in critical races,” said Matt Walter, President of the Republican State Leadership Committee.
