Jill Glover, Texas Republican Executive Committee member, challenged the Texas Federation of Republican Women (TFRW) to uphold "God's definition of a woman" and to be strong in barring transgender women from holding a vote in the historically woman-only association.
"This is unbelievable," Glover said in a Sept. 5 post on X, formerly Twitter. "Will Texas Federation of Republican Women stand up for women? If not, Charlie is correct. If Texas Republican Women do not uphold God given design of woman, then the nation falls."
The National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW) is an organization founded in 1938 with many clubs all over the United States, totaling tens of thousands of women who share the same political values, according to its website. Its overarching mission is to create a community for Republican women and to build up and encourage these future leaders of the nation.
The goals of the organization are to inform the wider public on Republican standpoints, to help qualified Republicans get into office, to represent the Republican party well and to promote the work of women in every level of government, the website reported.
The NFRW recently rejected a bylaw that proposed allowing transgender women into membership with the association and to become active, voting members, according to a Sept. 4 WND report. The NFRW has gotten much backlash and the national president, Eileen Sobjack, fears confronting this issue could be costly to the Federation.
The TFRW encourages, educates and supports Republican women to run for office and has become one of the largest women's political organizations in the United States, its website noted. While there were small women’s political clubs in the state beforeTFRW’s establishment, the Texas Federation became an official entity in 1955, only 17 years after the founding of the NFRW.
Glover is an outspoken Republican who was born in small town Texas. In 2019, after carefully watching the committee's proceedings, she ended up serving as a fill-in for the Texas Republican Executive Committee after the previous position holder died, according to Texas Scorecard.
In 2020, she was then elected again to fill that role and to be the chairwoman of the Republican party’s Legislative priorities Committee. Her main goals are to advocate for the protection of children and to further justice and freedom in the United States, Texas Scorecard reported.
