The Republican State Leadership Committee (RSLC) is a political organization designed to assist Republicans in capturing and holding control of state legislatures across the United States. The organization notably raised over $140 million from 2004 to 2014, working across the country. The RSLC's Democratic Party counterpart is the Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee (DLSC). The organization has stated that it "is the largest caucus of Republican state leaders in the country and the only national organization whose mission is to elect down-ballot, state-level Republican officeholders" with efforts focused on "the offices of lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, state legislator, the judiciary and other down-ticket races." The RSLC has also asserted that they have "more than 150,000 donors in all 50 states." The RSLC President position is currently held by Matt Walter. The RSLC has functioned since 2002,〔 while their rivals in the DLSC got started after the 1992 elections. Political activist campaigns founded or co-founded by the RSLC include the "Judicial Fairness Initiative", the "Future Majority Project", and the "Right Women, Right Now" initiative.〔 As of the aftermath of the 2014 U.S. elections, the Republican Party controls 68 out of 98 partisan state legislative chambers in the country, with the RSLC a major part of the efforts to hold onto these chambers into the future.〔 The RSLC is also the sponsoring organization of the ''.gop'' top-level Internet domain. ==See also== *History of the United States Republican Party *List of state parties of the Republican Party (United States) *Political party strength in U.S. states *Politics of the United States *Republican Governors Association 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Republican State Leadership Committee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
