Last Thursday evening, the Manatee County Republican Liberty Caucus hosted their 2023 Champions of Liberty Awards. These awards recognize elected officials who embrace and live by principles of conservatism while in the service of the public. | | | |
The event was held at Mean Dean's Local Kitchen in Bradenton and was very well attended. Kevin Wright kicked off the event followed by Bob White, Chair of the Florida Republican Liberty Caucus, who delivered introductory remarks. | | | |
Awards were presented to District 5 School Board Member Richard Tatem, FL State Rep. Tommy Gregory, FL State Rep. Mike Beltran and Manatee County Commissioner At Large George Kruse. | | | |
A number of candidates were also in attendance including Keith Green (Manatee County Commissioner At Large), Eddie Speir (FL-16), Mark Stanoch (School Board District 1) and Carol Ann Felts (Manatee County Commissioner District 1). | | | |
We wish to thank the MCRLC, and Kevin Wright in particular, for a spectacular evening and we look forward to their future events. | |

From Victims of Communism-Manatee Inc. Help Preserve Future Generations | |
| |
Last year, Governor Ron DeSantis signed legislation establishing November 7 as “Victims of Communism Day”. The law states that on or about this day, Florida high school students enrolled in classes on US Government must receive at least 45 minutes of instruction on such topics as Joseph Stalin, Fidel Castro, Pol Pot and how victims suffered under these regimes.
However, we feel that only 45 minutes of instruction is inadequate to reveal the true depth of the evils of Communism to future generations of Floridians. In response, we have formed Victims of Communism-Manatee, Inc., a 501(c) (3) Not for Profit organization to enable high school students to learn firsthand about the horrors of Communism by hearing from people who have endured life under a Communist regime. To encourage students to participate, we have established a competitive Scholarship Program for students in Manatee County public, private and home schools. But we cannot do this without your help. We are asking for your tax-deductible donation to help fund our scholarship program. To learn more about this important program and to make an online donation, please click the button below. Your generous donation will go a long way toward preserving future generations of Floridians. | |
