Getting Involved in Your County Political Organization

 

Why Get Involved?

Staying informed and engaged in local government is essential to protecting your rights, freedoms and future. The Oceana County GOP works to inform and educate the community about elected officials, proposed actions, and how local decisions may affect us all.

County Commissions, Township Boards, City Councils, and committees shape ordinances and policies that directly impact our freedoms and quality of life. If we are not involved, others will decide these matters for us.

Our responsibility extends beyond ourselves to future generations. We elect representatives to protect our rights and limit government overreach—and they rely on an informed, engaged community to do so.

Remember these words of wisdom:

Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn’t pass it on to our children in the bloodstream. The only way they can inherit the freedom we have known is if we fight for it, protect it, defend it, and then hand it to them with the well fought lessons of how they in their lifetime must do the same. And if you and I don’t do this, then you and I may well spend our sunset years telling our children and our children’s children what it once was like in America when men were free. – Ronald Reagan

Educate and inform the whole mass of the people… They are the only sure reliance for the preservation of our liberty. – Thomas Jefferson
