RESTORE TRUST

Restoring trust begins with respecting the sovereignty of each state federation.  RestoreYR will end the abusive and manipulative practices used by YRNF leadership to exert their will and shift towards a culture that empowers state federations to do what is in their best interest. 

RESTORE OPPORTUNITY

Restoring opportunity can only be achieved by restoring value.  RestoreYR commits to making national meetings more affordable and meaningful for Young Republicans and eliminate the quota-driven culture that has stifled development and decimated morale.  

RESTORE UNITY

Restoring unity means ending YRNF's top-down style of leadership that has long prioritized blind loyalty over skill and achievement.  RestoreYR will encourage the free exchange of ideas and facilitate debate on all matters - because all National Committee members are equal.
