GOPAC today announced its 2015 Class of Emerging Leaders, state legislators who have demonstrated potential to have a positive impact in their state and in the Republican Party.
Senator Stephanie Bice is among those chosen.
“Our Emerging Leaders program ensures a roster of prepared and tested Republicans ready to lead in their state legislatures and run for higher office.” said GOPAC Chairman David Avella. “As evidenced by past honorees now serving in Congress or as leaders in their state legislative chambers, this program has proven effective at advancing the Republican Party’s next generation. Further, Republican majorities in 69 of 99 state legislative chambers have proven a tremendous advantage in federal elections.”
The Emerging Leaders program is a yearlong initiative to coach and develop state legislators from across the country on how to be effective legislative leaders. This year’s class will begin their involvement at the 5th Annual Emerging Leaders Summit, which takes place from June 8th to 11th. The Summit gives participants the opportunity to learn from policy experts, veteran lawmakers, communications professionals and seasoned political strategist as well as each other. These leaders return to their states better equipped to advance the ideas they are championing and prepare for the rigors of campaigning for higher office. To be selected, an emerging leader must be nominated by a member of the organization’s Legislative Leaders Advisory Board or the legislative leader in their state.
