CONSERVATIVE ACTION ALERT
On August 19.2023 the California Conservative Conference will be holding its SEVENTH Statewide conservative conference. In Fresno. Due to the scamdemic, we had been unable to hold it the last three years. HOLD THIS DATE!!!!
Now, the TEA PARTY CALIFORNIA CAUCUS is again sponsoring this well known event for California conservatives. There will be other sponsors announced soon—if your conservative group wants to sponsor contact me and I will forward it to the TPCC.
This conference will start at 9:00am on August 19 and last to 5:00pm in Fresno. Details will come out shortly.
The agenda includes training for candidates for legislative and local office as well as for County Central Committee. We will be discussing and planning the strategy for conservatives for the 2024 election. It is an excellent way to network and meet people who can help your campaign, organization and educate the voters in your area.
We will also be planning for the CRP Platform fight.

(Periodically the California Political News and Views will publish tidbits of political news, to keep you in the loop of what the pooh bahs know. The phrase “tom/tom’s” comes from my mentor, Lorelei Kinder who never passed a rumor, just called to tell me what she heard on the “TomTom’s”. This column is named in her honor.)
