There is no cost to attend. Space is limited and RSVP is required.
For more information, please contact Leah Sabin at [email protected].
The candidates will have the opportunity to tell us why they deserve the job. These forums are not in a debate format, rather, we prefer the “job interview” format in which we invite the Republican candidates to meet individually with our members for approximately 25 minutes.
It allows quality time for our members to get to know each of the candidates, and allows for sufficient time for our members to hear their positions. They will answer a few prepared questions which we’ll ask, followed by an open conversation and Q&A from the audience.
After their allocated time, we have them leave the room and we invite the next candidate into the room to address our RJC members in an intimate setting
This event is off the record and closed to the press.
There will be no video or audio recording of any kind permitted.
We look forward to seeing you on March 1!
