President’s Message…
Maureen M Karas
With March comes candidate filing for public office in the state of Nevada. We should know who Republican candidates are for federal, state, county and city offices when we open our Saturday, March 17th newspaper. Please know that from now until the June 12th Primary, ARW general membership meeting programs will be dedicated to introducing the candidates to you so that you may make an informed decision at the polls. See programs in this newsletter for more details. Also this month, we have the Clark County Republican Party’s (CCRP) Convention at The Orleans Casino on Tropicana. Those of you stepping up to be delegates to the convention, I would like to say thank you. And those of you who have volunteered to register the delegates, some 3500 of them, I applaud you for your willingness to give of your time and energy. Successful elections require a synergistic process – all hands working together for a common goal. And that goal is making Nevada RED in 2012! By the way, if you have not purchased your RED pin yet, you may do so at the convention. Margaret Helsper will be manning a table for that purpose. Can’t help but plug our 2012 ARW Fundraiser!!! Last, you will want to mark your calendars for the Nevada Federation of Republican Women’s Spring Board Meeting to be held at The Gold Coast Casino on Flamingo Friday, April 20th and Saturday, April 21st. This year our two-day agenda will be a little different. Because of the Caucus and Convention, NvFRW Regents were unable to schedule the annual Leadership Training in the first quarter. Instead, this valuable seminar will be held starting at 1:00 PM Friday, April 20th. Those of you who are new to ARW and those of you wanting to step up in new areas of the club will want to attend this valuable, educational event. Following Leadership will be the special and newly formatted Regents event featuring the Chief Operations Officer for National Securities Technologies, LLC, Mike Butchko. NST is a government contractor responsible for the operations at the Nevada National Security Site. Hear about how Nevada played an integral role in assisting the Japanese with the failure of their nuclear reactor post-tsunami. More information on this may be seen in the NvFRW Newsletter due to come to your email sometime in March. Proceeds from your membership in Regents go to events such as these and leadership training for our members.

And something new will be added to our 2-day event this year - a Friday evening social complete with cash bar, refreshments and Bunco. Get to meet ladies from some of the other clubs here in Las Vegas, the Rurals and Northern Nevada. This is a great way for all of us to network and learn from each other. Wake-up to a Continental Breakfast starting at 8 AM Saturday, April 21st,to be followed by the actual Spring Board Meeting starting at 9 AM and running through 4 PM. And speaking of waking up, many of you will want to take advantage of the great rates the Gold Coast has provided for us and spend the night. Make it a “stay-cation”. The Gold Coast recently remodeled many rooms. WOW, the
Asian theme through the corridors and into the rooms is stunning. The tubs have been removed and instead you may walk into a beautiful, oversized shower with those great free-form glass doors. The traditional rooms have also been slightly upgraded with modern bedding and flat screen TVs. Rates are $119 (remodeled) and $99 (traditional) plus a $3 resort fee and tax. Make your reservations now; and, use this special code to get the NvFRW rate: A2RWC04. You will be seeing more detailed information on the NvFRW Spring Board Meeting in the coming weeks. An “Official Call” should go out sometime in March. See you next month!

LITERACY NEEDS AND REQUESTS By Molly Governs, ARW Literacy Chair The Literacy Committee has three needs and requests:
1. Please consider using one small period of time to read to a class in any school or preschool. Contact Molly Governs by emailing mogov@mac.com for some tips and short instructions. It has been brought to my attention that some companies will make small donations to the schools on behalf of employees who volunteer their time reading to our children in schools. Ask your employer if they do this.
2. Donations of new or gently used books for elementary aged school children are needed as gifts to children in elementary schools to start their own home libraries.
3. The ARW has published Literacy Cards (pictured below) with tips to parents and caregivers of young children on enhancing the joys of reading. Teachers, please feel free to ask for these cards also. Once again, contact Molly Governs via email (mogov@mac.com) for large or small quantities of these cards to distribute throughout our Las Vegas community.

ARW will be sending cookie boxes to deployed soldiers and also distributing some closer to home. If you know of a deployed military member or unit that could use a touch of home, please email Diane Welch the information at welchd167@gmail.com or call her at (702) 373-6522.

DID YOU KNOW THAT ? ....... Social Security Cards up until the 1980s expressly stated the number and card were not to be used for identification purposes. Since nearly everyone in the United States now has a number, it became convenient to use it anyway and the message, NOT FOR IDENTIFICATION, was removed President Franklin Roosevelt, a Democrat, introduced the Social Security (FICA) program. He promised: 1) That participation in the program would be completely voluntary, No longer voluntary 2) That the participants would only have to pay 1% of the first $1,400 of their annual incomes into the program, Now 7.65% on the first $90,000 3) That the money the participants elected to put into the Program would be deductible from their income for tax purposes each year, No longer tax deductible 4) That the money the participants put into the independent 'Trust Fund' rather than into the general operating fund, and therefore, would only be used to fund the Social Security Retirement Program, and no other Government program, and, Under Johnson the money was moved to The General Fund and spent 5) That the annuity payments to the retirees would never be taxed as income, Under Clinton & Gore up to 85% of your Social Security can be taxed Since many of us have paid into FICA for years and are now receiving a Social Security check every month you may be interested in the following: ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---Q: Which political party took Social Security from the independent 'Trust Fund' and put it into the general fund so that Congress could spend it? A: It was Lyndon Johnson and the democratically controlled House and Senate ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---Q: Which Political Party eliminated the income tax deduction for Social Security (FICA) withholding? A: The Democratic Party ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---Q: Which Political Party started taxing Social Security annuities? A: The Democratic Party, with Al Gore casting the 'tie-breaking' deciding vote as President of the Senate, while he was Vice President of the US ------------ --------- --------- --------- --------- --------- ---Q: Which Political Party decided to start giving annuity payments to immigrants? A: That's right! Jimmy Carter and the Democratic Party. Immigrants moved into this country, and at age 65, began to receive Social Security payments! The Democratic Party gave these payments to them, even though they never paid a dime into it! ------------ -- ------------ --------- ----- ------- --------- ---Then, after violating the original contract (FICA), the Democrats turn around and tell you that the Republicans want to take your Social Security away! And the worst part about it is uninformed citizens believe it!
