This is your RNC News podcast.
The US Republican Party and the Republican National Committee (RNC) have been in the spotlight for several key developments. Recently, former RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel has re-entered the political arena by joining a newly created nonprofit organization backed by the influential DeVos family. This group is focused on making Michigan a reliably Republican state, indicating a strategic shift in resources to secure key electoral territories.
On the policy front, the RNC's platform committee has adopted a new GOP platform for the 2024 elections, which includes significant changes to the party's stance on several critical issues. Notably, the platform now aligns more closely with the views of former President Donald Trump, particularly on abortion. The new platform suggests that the 14th Amendment guarantees the right to life and liberty, and thus states should be free to pass laws protecting these rights, effectively supporting state-level decisions on abortion rather than a federal ban.
This shift marks a departure from previous GOP platforms that advocated for a 20-week federal abortion ban. The platform also touches on other key issues such as same-sex marriage and immigration, reflecting the influence of Trump and his allies within the party.
Additionally, the RNC's convention, scheduled to take place in Milwaukee, will see the full membership vote to officially confirm this new platform. Trump himself was involved in the process, dialing into the meeting to discuss and approve the draft platform.
These developments highlight the ongoing evolution of the Republican Party's positions and strategies as it approaches the 2024 elections.
