Assemblyman Cameron Smyth - 38th AD  
Cameron Smyth
 
Elected in 2006, Assemblyman Cameron Smyth is honored to represent the 38th Assembly District, which includes the cities of Los Angeles, Santa Clarita, Simi Valley and Glendale.

Upon his re-election in 2008, Assemblyman Smyth was appointed by Assembly Republican Leader Michael Villines as the Republican Caucus Chair, which is the second-highest ranking Republican in the State Assembly. An integral part of the Assembly Republican leadership team, the Caucus Chair assists the Leader in advancing the Republican policy agenda, and achieving the Caucus' political goals. Additionally, the Caucus Chair regularly communicates with Republican leaders throughout California on key legislative issues and party matters.

Protecting America in the New Missile Age

 
We will be showing this video at Galpin Ford at 7:00pm on Tuesday, October 20th at 7:00pm.  Please join us to see this very important film.  We will have a discussion following the film
 

33 Minutes: Protecting America in the New Missile Age is a one-hour documentary produced by The Heritage Foundation that tells the story of the very real threat foreign enemies pose to every one us. The truth is brutal - no matter where on Earth a missile is launched from it would take 33 Minutes or less to hit the U.S. target it was programmed to destroy.

Nuclear proliferation around the world, and the threat of a ballistic missile attack of some kind is mounting as more and more countries obtain nuclear technology. The ongoing threat toward America is also accelerating due to the fact that there are many rogue nations and terrorist organizations who either have or are seeking ballistic missiles and nuclear technology.

The challenges of protecting America and its citizens for President Obama's administration are great. Featuring rare footage and in-depth interviews with leading experts in the field, 33 Minutes is the definitive documentary exposing the untold vulnerability we all face and the action plan necessary to revive a strategic missile defense system that America uniquely can develop, maintain, and employ for its own defense and the peace-loving world's security.

Help Recover a Congressional Seat for the GOP  
David Harmer Join Us - October 24th

 
This Saturday, October 24th, The Republican Party of Los Angeles County is sending two bus loads of volunteers to Walnut Creek for the day to walk precincts for David Harmer who is running against John Garamendi in the 10th Congressional District.  This is a vacant seat.  David Harmer has a chance to take this seat.  We want to help him do that.

Please join us for a fun day of work and camaraderie to walk precincts for David Harmer.  If you would like to join us, please send an email to gary.aminoff@lagop.org.  The buses will leave at 6:00am Saturday morning and return before midnight.  I know its a long day, but how important is it to get one more conservative Republican in the House?  Pretty important, I would say.  You can read more about David Harmer on his web site:  http://www.harmerforcongress.com

We are encouraging all of our members to patronize the businesses of our fellow members and Republicans.  If you need goods and services, why not have them provided by your fellow Republicans?
