RON PAUL FUNDRAISER:
Report Author: Don Zimmerman
September 28, 2002 - Austin, Texas
The Republican Liberty Caucus (RLC) hosted Dr. Ron
Paul and several RLC-TX candidates and office holders at the Stephen F. Austin Intercontinental Hotel. About 65
people attended the event and several thousand dollars were raised for Dr. Paul's new CD-14 race this fall.
The first speaker was RLC-TX member and Bastrop County
Commissioner Don Loucks. Also briefly speaking were Jack Stick (State Rep. District 50 candidate), Melissa
Goodwin (Travis Pct. 3 JP candidate), Andrew Pacetti (State Rep. District 49 candidate), and Jerry
Patterson (Texas Land Commissioner candidate). Also Libertarian candidates Michele Messina (CD-10
candidate) and Jason Pratt (County Judge candidate) were recognized.
Dr. Paul spoke at length on the
Constitutional separation of powers, in the context of the current
Bush administrations' foreign policy, and about the runaway spending in Washington. Dr. Paul then gave a
lengthy question and answer session, and enjoyed a hearty standing ovation at the conclusion of his well
received discourse.

***********************************
Our Purpose:
After decades of New Deal and Great Society social activism ... combined with the rapid decline in civics and American history education in our government-run public schools ... mixed with a growing population of ill-informed and apathetic voters ...
government at every level in this country continues to be
too big, too intrusive and too expensive.
Founded in 1990, the Republican Liberty Caucus of
Texas works to advance the principles of limited government, individual
liberty and free markets within the Republican Party and throughout
Texas. Our focus is on a broad range of issues, including education, taxation, property
rights, gun rights, free speech, federalism and the proper role of government.
In
addition to giving disenfranchised smaller-government Republicans a home by
creating incentive to stay in our party, the Republican Liberty Caucus of
Texas helps avoid a potential exodus to Libertarian,
Constitutional, and other third parties, which would end up weakening our
thin margin over the Democrats, thus opening the door to big-government
victories from leftist candidates. The Republican Liberty Caucus
of
Texas is proud to promote the GOP's smaller-government message. Our limited government, individual
liberty and free market ideas will win by inclusion. There is
strength in numbers.
While rolling back decades of government "nannyism" will require a great deal of public education and grassroots lobbying, the most important means of changing public policy is to change public officials. Therefore, the
Republican Liberty Caucus of
Texas works to elect
pro-liberty Republicans to offices at all levels, partisan and non-partisan, in both primary and general
elections.
The Republican Liberty Caucus of
Texas is committed
not to just electing more Republicans ... but better ones, as well.
