RIGHT TO RISE PAC RELEASES NEW WEB VIDEO: “BETTER”
 
Tallahassee, FL — Ahead of Hillary Clinton’s announcement, the Right to Rise PAC released a new web video featuring former Florida Governor Jeb Bush, the PAC’s Honorary Chairman, outlining the conservative principles necessary for creating a stronger economy and renewing the promise of prosperity. Governor Bush, in a direct-camera address, advocates for a stronger bond between the United States and our foreign allies, rather than the Obama-Clinton foreign policy agenda that has diminished America’s standing in the world as conflicts continue to escalate abroad.
 
“The American Dream feels out of reach for too many people, and it’s time for our leaders to focus on creating the opportunities needed for people to rise up and prosper,” said Honorary Chairman Jeb Bush. “We need to push for conservative ideas that will renew America and strengthen our presence in the world after the Obama-Clinton foreign policy failures.”  

Transcript:
 
Governor Jeb Bush: In the coming weeks and months I look forward to an exchange of ideas and substantive policy proposals.
 
I believe that every American deserves the right to rise and the opportunity to achieve the American Dream...
...and that abroad, America should be respected by our allies, and feared by our enemies.
 
That's why it's critical we change the direction our country is heading.  
 
We must to do better than the Obama-Clinton foreign policy that has damaged relationships with our allies and emboldened our enemies.
 
Better than their failed, big government policies that grow our debt and stand in the way of real economic growth and prosperity.
 
I believe it’s conservative ideas that will renew America, grow our economy, put our fiscal house in order, and make our great country even stronger.
 
I know we can do better - and together, we will.

Right to Rise PAC Releases New Web Video "Iowa"

RIGHT TO RISE PAC RELEASES NEW WEB VIDEO: “IOWA”

Tallahassee, FL —Today, The Right to Rise PAC released a new web video with footage of the PAC’s Honorary Chairman, Governor Jeb Bush, during his recent trip to Iowa. On the road to the Iowa Ag Summit, the video captures Governor Bush driving through the streets of Des Moines describing the impact Iowa’s agriculture industry has on the entire country.

“Much of our nation’s economic success comes from those who are willing to take risks for the sake of innovation,” said Honorary Chairman Jeb Bush. “Iowa farmers epitomize that entrepreneurial spirit, and it’s the government’s role to foster that creativity, not stifle it with more federal regulations.”

Jeb Bush Confirmed for the Southern Republican Leadership Conference (SRLC) in Oklahoma City in May

Jeb Bush confirmed today for the Southern Republican Leadership Conference (SRLC) in Oklahoma City in May

(Oklahoma City)— Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush confirmed today for the Southern Republican Leadership Conference (SRLC) in Oklahoma City in May.

Governor Bush, one of America's most recognizable Republican leaders, is now the seventh national leader and potential 2016 presidential candidate to confirm for the conference along with Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, former Sen. Rick Santorum, Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal, Dr. Ben Carson, Carly Fiorina, and Donald Trump. OKGOP Chairman Dave Weston noted, "Hailing from one of America's most recognizable political families, we welcome Governor Bush to Oklahoma to hear his vision for our nation's future.

Gov. Bush has been the subject of intense media coverage surrounding the coming race for the GOP presidential nomination, and our thousands of attendees look forward to seeing his presence at the SRLC." Jeb Bush’s candidacy gained critical steam last month after former Gov. Mitt Romney announced he would not seek a third Republican nomination for the White House. Since that time, Bush has traveled extensively to the early primary states of Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina to continue building his campaign operation ahead of an expected formal announcement of his candidacy this spring. Weston continued, "Gov. Bush remains one of the top contenders in the ongoing national polls for the Republican nomination, and this provides a critical platform for him to address southern primary voters across America."

The Southern Republican Leadership Conference will be hosted in Oklahoma City on May 21st - 23rd. The "Energy Capital of America", the event promises to be one of the largest attending political events of the year and will end with a 2016 Presidential Straw Poll. Dozens of invites to governors, congressional leaders and other Republican luminaries have been extended, and additional confirmations are expected in the coming days and weeks. More information on the SRLC is available at www.srlc.gop.
