AUSTIN, TX-Back in February, members of the Texas Republican Representatives Campaign Committee (TRRCC) joined Chairman Munisteri at RPT headquarters to present the party with a generous donation of $15,000 and a pledge to continue the momentum of our party’s success through additional fundraising.

Today, we are pleased to announce that TRRCC has generously followed through on that pledge and provided another $5,000 contribution to the RPT. We are very grateful for the support and wish to recognize all of the board members of TRRCC: Chairman Harvey Hilderbran, Myra Crownover, Lois Kolkhorst, Jim Keffer, Ken Paxton, Larry Taylor, Larry Phillips, Kelly Hancock and Wayne Smith.

As the organization approaches the anniversary of its second full year in existence, TRRCC continues to be a strong Republican presence in the State House. The committee has been modeled after the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) and is geared towards a Texas culture of solid, conservative principles.

Said RPT Chairman Steve Munisteri, “The continued support of groups like TRRCC is vital to the ongoing success of our state party not only this year, but as we grow and move forward into 2012. I am grateful for this contribution to the RPT, and would like to recognize and thank Chairman Harvey Hilderbran for following through on his committment to support the state party with his time, talents and resources. All of the board members of TRRCC have taken an active role in strengthening the Republican Party of Texas and voiced their committment to continue their support in the critical election year approaching in 2012. I thank each of them for their leadership, and for the generosity of this new contribution.”
