The Republican Strike Force is a statewide group of grass roots Republicans whose mission will be to assist Republican candidates running for Rhode Island General Assembly seats.

Eileen Grossman, the Rhode Island GOP Volunteer Coordinator also serves as a co-chair. They report directly to RI GOP Chairman Mark Zaccaria.

Zaccaria said, “This rally will not only kick off our Rhode Island Republican Strike Force, it will also feature several of our candidates who will be running for the General Assembly in November. We have been working hard behind the scenes with many new candidates and are very excited about the 2012 election. The Strike Force has grown to over 150 members and we expect a great event next Monday night.”

The Rhode Island Republican Party sponsors and supports Republican candidates for seats in the state and federal legislatures. As with all state GOP organizations the Rhode Island Republican Party has three seats on the Republican National Committee. Please visit the state party’s web site www.rigop.org.
