BREAKING NEWS! Grace Kunde Launches Fourth Court Of Appeals Exploratory Committee In South Texas

Kunde, a long-time Republican, is considering a bid for election to the vacant seat, upon the anticipated announcement of Justice Sarah Duncans decision not to seek re-election.

The Fourth Court of Appeals has jurisdiction over civil and criminal appeals from the trial courts in a 32 county region. Kunde would bring to the Fourth Court of Appeals a conservative philosophy centered upon the principles that the appellate courts should apply the law without legislating from the bench. Her prior experience as a Briefing Attorney for Shirley Butts of the Fourth Court of Appeals gives her a unique insight into the Court. In this capacity, she performed legal services for individuals, landowners, locally owned banks, and small businesses throughout South Central Texas before entering private practice in 1992. A Democrat is already attempting a campaign for the seat. 

Kunde was born in Bexar County in 1964. She was raised on the family dairy farm. After graduating from Texas Lutheran College in 1985 with a B.A. in accounting, she received her Law Degree from St. Mary's University School of Law in 1990.       

Kunde devotes her time to church, civic, and political activities. She is a member of Redeemer United Church of Christ, where she has served as Treasurer of the Christian Board of Education and assists in music for worship and Sunday school. Kunde is a long-time member of the Board of Directors for the Comal County Childrens Shelter, where she has served as Treasurer and President. She is a Rotarian; a member and past president of the Guadalupe County Republican Women, and is a former Guadalupe County Republican Party Precinct Chair.

Kunde is married to Wyatt Kunde, a former Guadalupe County Commissioner and they have two children, Wyatt Jr. and Scarlett. She enjoys attending Wyatt, Jr.s basketball games and coaching his team. She also delights in watching Scarlett grow and chase her big brother around the house.   

If you would like to contact Grace G. Kunde to help in her campaign please call (830) 420-3769

Texas Toll Party- Just Like The Boston Tea Party!


Editor's Note: MPO stands for Metropolitan Planning Organization and it's Transportation Policy Board is the gatekeeper (or the check and balance on TxDOT) who disperses Federal & State highway funds to TxDOT. It's VERY IMPORTANT YOU ATTEND TO STOP THIS TOLL PLAN!

ACTION ALERT!

Without action from taxpayers, the San Antonio-Bexar County MPO will build toll roads. Lots of them! There's an MPO Meeting on Monday, July 25, 2005 at 1:30 pm in the Community Room at the VIA Metro Center, 1021 San Pedro Avenue, San Antonio. 

We need you at this meeting! This toll road plan will use your gasoline tax money to build toll roads and then charge you to use them.  In other words, you will be taxed twice for these roads.  No elected official has any control over the rates charged. A similar toll road plan in Austin calls for tolls of up to $1.00 per mile. Toll revenues will be used to build more toll roads. Bexar County Commissioner Lyle Larson has called this open-ended taxation the largest tax increase in Texas history. This is a new statewide mandate...you eventually won't be able to avoid paying tolls on all our freeways.

Here's what Chairman of the Texas Transportation Commission Ric Williamson said, "In your lifetime, most existing roads will have tolls." He's our TxDOT District Engineer's boss.

TxDOT purposely manipulated the solution to our traffic congestion on US 281. It was all set to begin construction of the needed overpasses, and they pulled the ALREADY FUNDED project in order to, instead, turn it into a toll way and charge us every time we drive on it FOREVER. A horrible fraud is being committed against the taxpayers and we want accountability! When TxDOT takes a $30.9 million project and turns it into a nearly $80 million project, something stinks! Then add to that the unlimited cost of tolls. Taxpayers know when they smell a rat, and this deal is going South and fast. It's past time to restore responsive government to the PEOPLE! Power to the People!

At this very MPO Meeting, TxDOT will be asking for $13 million more dollars to spend on studying more toll roads rather than actually building needed roads!

TELL THE SAN ANTONIO-BEXAR COUNTY MPO THAT YOU DONT WANT THIS PLAN!

Come to the meeting Monday and tell them in person! We will be calling for an independent review of TxDOT's toll plan. Go to http://www.TexasTollParty.com and express your concern to the Governor and over 200 elected officials in one click!

South Texas Republicans Meetup - Sarwat Husain, Chair, The Council on American-Islamic Relations- San Antonio

Join Us At Our Next San Antonio South Texas Republicans Meet Up Day - Tuesday, August 2nd, 2005

 

Keynote Speaker: Sarwat Husain, Chair, The Council on American-Islamic Relations- San Antonio

Title"American Muslims"

Only with open and constant communication we all can bring in much needed understanding among all Americans regardless of our different religious and cultural backgrounds. -Sarwat Husain

Time: 7:00pm-8:00 pm
(Political Networking: 6:30pm - 7:00pm)

Event Cost:  Free

Location: Nadler's Bakery at 1621 Babcock Rd, San Antonio, Texas

Event Contact: Schuylar Crist (210) 663-6093 or E-mail: skyskyrider@hotmail.com

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) is a nonprofit 501(c)(4), grassroots civil rights and advocacy group. CAIR is America's largest Islamic civil liberties group, with regional offices nationwide and in Canada. The national headquarters is located on Capitol Hill in Washington D.C.

Since its establishment in 1994, CAIR has worked to promote a positive image of Islam and Muslims in America. Through media relations, lobbying, education and advocacy, CAIR puts forth an Islamic perspective to ensure the Muslim voice is represented. In offering this perspective, CAIR seeks to empower the American Muslim community and encourage their participation in political and social activism.

NOTICE TO OUR READERS AND SUPPORTERS: 

Why are we featuring a speaker from this Islamic organization? Reports from London describe radical Islamic clerics who are motivating the local
population to rise against Christians and all Westerners. 

South Texas Republicans believe it is preferable to have strong, friendly and cooperative relations with our Islamic population in South Texas. That is our position.

SAVE THE DATE! September 22nd: Tim Lambert Of The Texas Home Schoolers Coalition of Texas Will Address The Rough Riders of Bexar County

Keynote speaker: Tim Lambert, of the Texas Home Schoolers Coalition of Texas (http://www.thsc.org/)

Program title: Home schooling in Texas: A Legislative Perspective

Date: Thursday, September 22nd

Time: Networking Reception and Dinner (on your own):  6:15pm-7:00pm
Program:  7:00pm  8:15pm

Location:  Grady's BBQ; 4109 Fredericksburg Road

Sponsorships will be available

The Texas Home School Coalition is dedicated to serving the home-school
community of Texas and promoting a greater knowledge, understanding and
acceptance of home education in our state.

The Texas Home School Coalition was established as a political action committee (PAC) in 1986 by Kirk McCord of Hearth and Home Ministries and the late Brad Chamberlain. Because of the numerous law suits against home schoolers across the state and harmful legislation being introduced in Austin, they saw a need for a state-wide political organization to work for the rights of home schoolers in the state of Texas. The founders, believing government restriction could not be justified academically or socially, formed the THSC PAC to oppose any regulation of home education in Texas.

In 1995, THSC incorporated as an educational non-profit organization because most of THSC's work is dealing with disseminating information to the public and to home educators. Its mission is to serve and inform the home school community and promote home education in Texas. THSC, maintaining that participation in the political arena is vital to maintaining their freedoms, continues to encourage home educators to be active in the political process.

In February of 1998, HOPE for Texas merged with the Texas Home School Coalition. At this point, THSC also became responsible for helping new home schoolers across the state as well as maintaining a network of information and communication between and among the leadership of regional home school organizations, local support groups, and individual home schooling families.

In 2000, the Texas Home School Coalition Association incorporated as a 501 (c)(4) advocacy organization for Texas home school families. Its mission is to serve and protect home school families in Texas.
