Speaker's Trust

What is the Speaker's Trust?

The Speaker's Trust is one of the NRCC's most important donor programs, made up of business professionals and political activists from around the country. Members are invited to exclusive events featuring Republican Members of Congress and Republican Party Leadership.

Why support the Speaker's Trust?

The NRCC is working tirelessly to ensure that we have enough resources to protect our targeted incumbents and that we continue to fund the best candidates to defeat Democrats across the country.  The funds raised through the NRCC will pay for media buys, grassroots organization, and candidate training and campaign materials.  Contributions made by Speaker's Trust members represent the maximum individual support and provide the financial backbone with which to finance our efforts to maintain the Majority.  Just one Speaker's Trust membership ($30,800) will fund:

• One week of television in Ohio at 1,000 grp's (gross rating points) which would allow the average person to see a television advertisement at least 10 times during the week
• Over  253 weeks of radio averaging 12 radio spots per week in Tennessee
• Over 60,000 mailings to educate voters on the Republican candidates in their district
  

Information circulated via TV, radio and mail can change a race.  Speaker's Trust members serve as a driving force behind this change.

How does a Speaker's Trust membership benefit you?

In addition to making helping the NRCC maintain the majority and support a pro-business agenda, your contribution entitles you to the following benefits (subject to change):

• One table (4 seats) with preferential seating to the NRCC's March 20, 2012 March Dinner (table includes 4 tickets to the VIP photo reception).
  

• Invitation for two to Regional NRCC Meetings:

• Winter Meeting in Naples, Florida - February 18-20, 2012
• Summer Meeting in Nemacolin, Pennsylvania – July 2012
• Bright Lights and Broadway in New York City – December 2012
  
  *Please note that the NRCC does not cover cost of rooms, as members of the Speaker's Trust are responsible for these costs.
  

• Quarterly NRCC conference calls and issue briefings with Republican Party Leaders.

• Invitations to Regional Events around the country.

• Updates from the NRCC—developments on the legislative and political fronts.
