Message from President Maddie McNeal  

Welcome to Republican Women of Okaloosa Federated (RWOF).  We are part of the largest and most active political organization dedicated to women in America. Founded in 1938, the National Federation of Republican Women is one of the largest grassroots political organizations in the country.

The objective of our organization is to strengthen the Republican Party by educating and empowering Republican women in the political process and provide a forum for them to serve as leaders in their communities

Our monthly programs are designed to keep you better informed about National, State, and Local candidates as well as crucial issues that face our community, state and nation.

As we say goodbye to 2020, we know that 2021 will be filled with many challenges for all of us.  We must be vigilant and steadfast in our support of the Republican party and our President.  Our freedoms and our American way of life have been targeted vigorously, in favor of socialism, by the new liberalized democrat party for the last four years.  We cannot give up our fight, our future and our children’s future depends on it.  Your membership means a great deal and we would be pleased for you to join us.  Help us make sure America stays great!
