Community council
URGVS Community Council members educate, organize, and mobilize voters in the Green Valley and Sahuarita communities to turn Southern Arizona RED. Council members engage with community members to discuss key issues that matter most to voters.
Urgvs Newsletter
The newsletter plays a vital role in updating the URGVS membership on the various activities and programs planned for the coming weeks. Key issues are discussed, and member resources are listed. URGVS priorities are showcased, and members have an opportunity to find out what Republicans are doing locally, statewide, and nationally.
Request to Speak
The Request To Speak program (RTS) is designed to allow the public to register an opinion on bills listed on agendas and to request to speak on a bill in a committee. After the initial setup, at a kiosk, the RTS program allows you to participate from your home or office.
URGVS Volunteers
The URGVS need for volunteers is constant and continues to evolve as we become more active and engaged in our communities. Being a volunteer is a satisfying and great experience. Volunteer opportunities include working in the URGVS headquarters, communications and technology, committee work, and political action.
Join the URGVS online Community. You can post, comment, personalized your activity feed, discuss key topics, articles, direct messaging, and make new Republican friends.
Our strength as a Party begins and ends with our willingness to unify as a singular force committed to the basic American values that underlie our faith, family, and freedom. We are not just working to defeat Democrats. We are educating, organizing, and mobilizing to restore our Constitutional Republic. Our goal is simple: Make America First!
A New approach to Politics
Issue Organizing Campaigns
The “campaigns and elections’ model is not working. Simply speaking, the GOP cannot compete with the Democrat Socialist Party that trades votes for government giveaways.
The URGVS has developed the “Issue Organizing Campaign” model (IOC). This model aligns voters to issues to candidates. The result is an established commitment between the voter and the candidate held together by important issues that matter to both the voter and candidate.
The URGVS educates, organizes, and mobilizes around issues that increase bottom-up leadership and inside-out values throughout the Republican Party to attract other organizations and groups. Educate, organize, and mobilize are defined as:
- Educating – Creating the narrative, the Republican Party is an activist organization grounded in member-driven issues.
- Organizing – Emphasizing a Republican member-driven party around issues from the inside-out.
- Mobilizing – Issues become the catalyst for increasing commitment to the election of candidates.
