BLOG: 6th Annual Reagan Dinner Honors Women of GOP

Every year, the Second Congressional District Republicans of Minnesota hosts the Reagan Dinner, an event commemorating the timeless principles of conservative values, solutions and ideals that made Ronald Reagan one of our nation’s most popular and effective Presidents.

As we enter this presidential general election cycle, we are reminded that the economy is again our number one priority followed closely with the issue of taxes and personal liberties.

All three of these issues that President Ronald Reagan championed, and which conservatives hold dear, are under attack by groups that would rather see hard work and individual determination and smart business growth penalized rather than rewarded.

But the attacks don't stop there. In recent months, the Republican Party has been unfairly targeted as being against women. That is why the Second Congressional District Republicans of Minnesota has decided to make this year’s theme the Women of the GOP.

Our lineup this year’s August 10 event features Lieutenant Governor of Iowa Kim Reynolds, Washington D.C. Political blogger Crystal Wright, Minnesota Young Republicans Membership Chair Anna Peterson, Wife of U.S. Senate candidate and current MN State Representative Kurt Bills, Cindy Bills and more. Emceeing the event this year is Jacquie Emmer, wife of former Gubernatorial candidate and MN Representative Tom Emmer.

The event, which takes place at the in Northfield, Minnesota, offers opportunities to meet with current State Representatives and State Senators, as well as candidates for Minnesota House and Senate. United States Senate Candidate Kurt Bills will also be attending.

This event is a great way to show your support for conservative candidates throughout the Second Congressional District in Minnesota and learn more about the issues that are effecting you in your community, the state and at the national level. We hope that you will be able to attend.
