Josh Scott - Executive Director Fix California
|
|
To restore the promise of the Golden State, Ric Grenell founded the Fix California Organization. Fix California is committed to pursuing long-term solutions that advance conservative ideas and causes throughout the state. Josh Scott is the Executive Director of Fix California.
Ric Grenell is not your typical Republican. Ric is the embodiment of the America First Agenda. We saw this through his gutsy approach when he was the Ambassador to Germany; and with his courageous transformative role as the Acting Director of National Intelligence in the Trump Administration. Ric actually dares to go where no man has gone before, and the results have proven to be positively brilliant.
The challenges facing California are beyond politics. Fix California’s goals are to deliver a world-class education through school choice, to pursue responsible environmental and energy policies to drive an economy that encourages innovation and extends the ladder of opportunity to every Californian. This will happen, when the playing field is even and the laws governing our elections are enforced.
The Executive Director of Fix California, Joshua Scott, has extensive experience in California politics. His background includes work as a geopolitical intelligence analyst in Tel Aviv, Israel. Josh has worked on political campaigns, and was the Californian Republican Nominee for the 32nd Congressional District in 2018 and in 2020.
Josh holds a Political Science degree from Cal State University. Josh joined Ric Grenell as the Executive Director of Fix California, and is working to restore California with long term solutions.
Plan to come and hear first-hand what is happening to advance conservative ideas and bring California back to being the Golden State.
Darlene Casella, Vice President

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
Dear Friends:
The RMRWF board wishes you a very happy and safe Mother’s Day and we look forward to seeing you at our May luncheon. For those of you who are leaving the desert for the summer, know that we will miss you!
Our club is here to help you stay informed on important political issues that affect us all, either directly or indirectly. The open border is one of those issues. While over 2 million illegal aliens have crossed the Southern Border since the Biden Administration took office, it is important that we understand that the drugs that are entering is an even more serious issue. To that end I want to highlight some important points from Sheriff Chad Bianco’s talk at the April luncheon since not every member was there. In addition to bringing us up-to-date on the status of his office, Sheriff Bianco told us some scary facts about fentanyl, a most deadly drug, that is freely flowing across our Southern Border and killing our young people. According to the Sheriff, more people died last year from fentanyl than from cancer or heart disease. An overdose of fentanyl can be instantly fatal and through skin-to-skin contact it also can kill the person who is giving CPR to save the life of a fentanyl user. Hopefully, none of us knows anyone who is using fentanyl but we can get the word out about the deadliness of this drug, especially since the media is not. They seem to care only about racism and global warming. They do not seem to be interested in helping to save American lives.
Thank you for being such devoted advocates of our youth and our country!
Patricia Pyle,
President
