Boehner, Cantor to address Republican Jewish Coalition
The two top House Republican leaders will address the
Republican Jewish Coalition national leadership meeting.
The RJC announced this week that it had confirmed
attendance by U.S. Reps. John Boehner (R-Ohio), the House of Representatives
speaker, and Eric Cantor (R-Va.), the majority leader, for the meeting April
18-21 in Las Vegas.
Also scheduled to deliver addresses are U.S. Sen. Marco
Rubio (R-Fla.), a leader of the party's conservative wing; New Mexico Gov.
Susana Martinez, a rising star noted for her appeal to Hispanics and women --
constituencies to which the Republican leadership hopes to appeal ahead of
coming elections; and Rep. Ed Royce (R-Calif.), the newly installed chairman of
the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
The Republican leadership is grappling with how best to
recast its image in the wake of its presidential defeat last November, as well
as losses in Congress.
The RJC meeting will take place at the Venetian, a
hotel-casino owned by Sheldon Adelson, a major benefactor of the RJC and of GOP
candidates.
These are the same people who did not support Rabbis for Romney and ran a lousy campaign. Republican Jewish Coalition is outdated and needs new young leadership. Rabbi DR. BERNHARD ROSENBERG, former president RABBIS FOR ROMNEY
