Chairman Message

To my fellow Republicans and concerned Calvert residents,

The Republican Party has a history of arguing about HOW to fight the left, while never actually getting around to the fight itself.  We watch daily as our American Values (Life, Liberty, Equality, Rule of Law, Pursuit of Happiness) come under attack.  We must set aside our differences and join together to fight:  higher taxes, polarized educational system, racial divisions, leftist ideology, high density building, increased crime, and environmental impacts to the Bay.  

Our mission at the Calvert County Republican Central Committee (CCRCC) is to:

  • Find and support candidates who best represent Calvert Republican Values

  • Support our Republican elected officials to enact and protect those Values

  • Listen/advocate/be a voice for our Calvert Community  

We have learned that we cannot rely on the federal government or the state to fix Calvert County problems, WE MUST FIX THEM!  The CCRCC team is dedicated to delivering wins for Calvert: exposing the CCPS budget slush fund, maintaining the Republican voter registration lead, and a 2022 virtual sweep of electing Republican candidates to county positions (Sheriff, State Attorney, Treasurer, 5 Commissioners, and 2 Board of Education (BOE) members).  We do have differences of thought; we are not like leftwing Democrats; we embrace free thinking.  Steel sharpens steel, debate is a virtue, division is the Left's weapon of choice; we must unify in order to WIN!  Unify around our Core Calvert Values!  The fight is here and now; we didn't ask for it but together we have to be the ones to answer the call.

The CCRCC looks forward to being stewards of the county: with you and for you!  The #1 priority is taking back the schools for our children and grandchildren.  We need to carry forward the victories of 2022, when we went 2 for 2 electing conservative Board of Education members.  This year it is vital we go 3 for 3 in electing and holding all 5 BOE positions!  The night is darkest before the dawn, dawn is coming!  

Fighting and winning is what we have done but the fight isn't over.  Freedom is not free!  We also need your support!  Whether it's your time or your money, we ALL must contribute to maintain our Calvert Values!   

Sincerely,

Josh Johnson, CCRCC Chairman

Legislative Updates ~~~

Governor Moore has requested nearly 250 fee increases through regulation and legislation.

Last Monday, the State announced a "$250 million write-down", which means people are buying less, therefore there's less tax revenue. Marylanders are feeling their budgets strained by inflation. Yet, the solution in Annapolis is to take more of your money.

We are Republican because…

 

WE BELIEVE the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person's dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored.

WE BELIEVE in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability.

We BELIEVE  free enterprise and encouraging individual initiative have brought this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity. 

WE BELIEVE  government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn. 

WE BELIEVE  the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations and that the best government is that which governs least. 

WE BELIEVE  the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people. 

WE BELIEVE  Americans must retain the principles that have made us strong while developing new and innovative ideas to meet the challenges of changing times. 

WE BELIEVE  Americans value and should preserve our national strength and pride while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world. 

FINALLY, WE BELIEVE  the Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government.
