ALEXANDRIA, Va. – Sue Lynch, president of the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW), issued the following statement in recognition of the 100th birthday of President Ronald Reagan on February 6:

“The NFRW and its members are honoring the Centennial of President Ronald Reagan, who most Americans revere as one of our nation’s greatest and most enduring leaders. President Reagan was a loyal friend to the NFRW during his time in elected office, and the NFRW continues to be a staunch supporter of our 40th president. During this time of remembrance, we are proud to recognize President Reagan’s rich legacy as a beacon of freedom to the entire world, and we will continue to embrace his core belief, that for America, ‘there will always be a bright dawn ahead.’ Happy Birthday, Mr. President!”

Founded in 1938, the NFRW has thousands of active members in local clubs across the nation and in several U.S. territories, making it one of the largest women’s political organizations in the country. The grassroots organization works to promote the principles and objectives of the Republican Party, elect Republican candidates, inform the public through political education and activity, and increase the effectiveness of women in the cause of good government.
