It has been my great honor for 20 years to faithfully serve the NFRW in key positions on the local, state, and national levels as a diligent and dedicated member and officer. I have been given the privilege to prove my abilities and strengthen my leadership skills by working closely with  NFRW as we continue our mission to empower and uplift Republican women. I believe those are among the most extraordinary principles of the NFRW, as we celebrate an illustrious 85-year history as the largest Republican women’s grassroots organization in the United States of America.

My goal is to propel the NFRW forward, bringing our exceptional political skills to every community while we strengthen our financial standing and increase membership. In the coming weeks, I will outline and share specifics of my vision for the presidency.

I offer our organization a unique background with diverse perspectives as an elected leader of the NFRW, State Republican Party and as a business professional. I have come up in political service from local all the way to national during a critical and decisive time in our nation's history. My commitment and promise to you are that I will devote all of my time and energy to increasing our effectiveness in advocacy for our Republican principles. Doing so in our states and federal venues will raise NFRW’s standing as the political force we truly are.  

I am grateful for the tremendous impact that you, the outstanding members of the NFRW, have had on my life and the lives of my loved ones. My family members express their appreciation as well. It has been an absolute honor and privilege to serve on the NFRW Executive Committee for eight years. It is with humility and confidence that I ask for the opportunity to continue our most essential work across our country. I have witnessed that by working together, you and I, can achieve great things and launch our NFRW to a higher level than ever before.


I am well prepared to lead as your President and excited to take on this challenge.

Arkansas Governor Names State GOP Chairman, Cody Hiland, Former Federal Prosecutor to Supreme Court Seat

Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders on Monday named state Republican Party chairman and former federal prosecutor Cody Hiland to the Arkansas Supreme Court.

In Governor Sanders states in her announcement, “This is the first time the Arkansas Supreme Court will have a conservative majority, and I know it will have the same effect on our state as it has had on our country.” 

Hiland had been nominated as U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Arkansas by President Donald Trump in 2017 and served in that position through 2020. He is a former state prosecutor and has served as state GOP chairman since December. He also worked on Sanders’ campaign for governor as a senior adviser.
The Governor went on to say, “He will be there to call balls and strikes, interpreting state law as it is written and leaving the legislating to the Legislature.” 
Hiland said he was humbled by the opportunity.
Hiland stated, “My prayer is at the end of this term people will say that I brought honor to the title of associate Supreme Court justice.”
