Guest speaker, T om Cookma n The Declining Enrollment in our Local Schools Don‟t miss this opportunity to hear Tom Cookman address this issue that includes thoughts on the political environment in Humboldt County, the California Teachers' Association and its agenda, logging and the local business environment, and the environmentalists' zero growth mentality. He will also give his views on why Republicans lose elections in Humboldt County and what can be done to reverse all these trends. Calling all teachers…... We hope that you will take time out of your summer vacation to enjoy a friendly informative meeting and the opportunity to hear and discuss a subject close to your hearts. Come and be acknowledged and bring your friends as well. As a legal immigrant who arrived in this great country with my husband and three teenage children in 1988, I watch with great interest, the immigration debate. I look back on ourown experiences in the immigration process and empathize with all legalimmigrants who spent years jumping through INS (Immigration and Naturalization Services) hoops to get green cards. We all have stories to tell. If the laws regarding immigration had been consistently en- forced over the years, we would not have this mountain of a problem. The quickest fix of all would be to enforce border control and prosecute employers of illegal aliens. I wonder where it will all end? If you are looking for uplifting reading material, I recommend Laura Bush, An Intimate Portrait of the First Lady, by Ronald Kessler. I was inspired by her steadfastness and faith, herknowledge and insights gained through her love and passion for reading, her successes in community services, especially in promoting literacy (amazing how silent the press is on this subject), her long-lasting friendships with people from all political persuasions and races, the respect given her by foreign diplomats who are awed by her knowledge of their countries, hermany talents which include her transformation of The White House; her love, support and close bonds with “Bushie”, her daughters, and parents, and her great sense of humor and humility. What a woman! The November elections are just around the corner! Our help is needed in volunteering hours at the Republican Headquarters, getting the word out and registering voters at the County Fair and in our neighborhoods. We need to be more involved as Republican women in community affairs. Suggestions are appreciated –many hands make light work. Let‟s all be motivators and motivated!
