Message from the President

Dear NHRW,

We are heading into a critical election cycle in 2026, with both the primary elections and the midterm election ahead. Turnout in primaries is typically lower than in general elections, which makes early engagement especially important, and NHRW is gearing up to make an impact.

I am continually inspired by the level of community service our members bring to this organization. Many of you give your time, leadership, and resources through schools, nonprofits, churches, and civic causes. That commitment matters, and it strengthens everything we do at NHRW. The question now is not whether to engage, but how to engage in the most effective ways.

Door-to-door canvassing remains the gold standard for turning out voters. Nothing outperforms it. Not mailers, phone banking, or television ads. For those looking for another high-impact option, hosting a small meet-and-greet is equally strategic. These gatherings create personal connections between candidates and voters and do not need to be elaborate. NHRW leadership is eager to attend and support members who host these events.

Our focus this year is gaining local Republican control in Orange County. We stand unified with OCGOP on this front. It goes without saying that our commitment to President Trump’s America First agenda is stronger than ever and we are ready for the work ahead!

With gratitude,

Jenny Golden, President
