WASHINGTON, D.C. (February 13, 2015)  – Today, Republican State Leadership Committee President Matt Walter announced Ellie Wallace as Communications Director for the 2015-2016 election cycle.

“We are excited to welcome Ellie to the RSLC as we prepare for a new election cycle dedicated to electing Republicans at the state level,” said Walter. “Following the RSLC’s record-breaking 2014 election victories, I am confident Ellie’s communications experience with campaigns around the country will be a valuable contribution to help lead our organization into its next chapter.”
