While serving in the Iowa House, Christina Bohannan was one of only 12 legislators to vote to make it easier for sexual predators to remove their names from the registered sex offenders list.
When asked directly about her vote, she had no answer for Iowa families.
In Iowa, individuals on the sex offender registry face restrictions designed to protect children and communities, including limitations on being on school property, near childcare facilities,and in certain public spaces such as libraries. Bohannan voted to weaken those protections by making it easier for offenders to seek removal from the registry.
If Christina Bohannan wants to represent Iowa families in Congress, Iowans deserve to know why she supported legislation that would have made it easier for registered sex offenders to get off the registry and potentially endanger children.
"Liberal Christina Bohannan had the chance to explain to Iowa parents why she voted to make it easier for registered sex offenders to get off the registry, and she couldn't do it. That's because Iowa families understand what Bohannan apparently doesn't: protecting children should come before advancing a radical agenda." - NRCC Spokeswoman Emily Tuttle

NRCC Releases First Ever "MAGA Majority" Video Highlighting Eric Flores
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) released the first-ever "MAGA Majority" video highlighting Eric Flores' upbringing in the Rio Grande Valley, his service as a Texas Army National Guard Infantry Captain and Assistant U.S. Attorney, and his role today as a husband, father, and proud South Texan.
"Eric Flores has spent his life answering the call to serve, fighting for the South Texas community thatraised him. He put on the uniform and took on criminals to protect Texas families. Meanwhile, out of touch Vicente Gonzalez has spent nearly a decade in Washington making life more expensive, the Rio Grande Valley less safe, and everyday life harder for the hardworking families of South Texas."- NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
A partial transcript from the "MAGA Majority" video featuring Eric Flores is found below:
"My name is Eric Flores, I'm the Republican nominee for Congressional District 34. [...]
I was born and raised in South Texas. [...]
I graduated from the University of Texas at Austin as a distinguished military grad where I became a United States Army infantry officer. Then shortly thereafter, I became an attorney prosecuting cartel members on the southern border. [...]
While serving at the US Attorney's Office in the Southern District Division, we were able to dismantle the largest human smuggling operation in that district. [...]
I'm running against Vicente Gonzalez because he has failed South Texas time and time again. He has shown that he is voting with the radical left. Nine times out of 10, he is voting with Jasmine Crockett.
We need somebody in D.C. who can actually deliver for South Texas. I have done that in uniform. I have done that in the federal courtroom, bringing many to justice for Texas 34. I have helped out at the local issues. I know the issues firsthand, and I know that I can deliver for Texas 34 from the Port of Corpus Christi all the way down to the Port of Brownsville."

RALEIGH, North Carolina, June 18 -- The North Carolina Republican Party issued the following news release on June 17, 2026:
* * *
Sarah Stevens Will Defend Parental Rights, Anita Earls Won't
North Carolina families can depend on conservative Sarah Stevens to defend parental rights on the N.C. Supreme Court. The same cannot be said for radical liberal activist Anita Earls.
In a recent appellate decision, a lawsuit filed by a Guilford County mother and her son over a forced Covid vaccination can proceed in part due to court rulings by the N.C. Supreme Court and the N.C. Court of Appeals. AnitaEarls dissented in the matter, saying government officials should be held accountable for a forced vaccination and did not violate their state constitutional rights.
Emily Happel and and her son, Tanner Smith, began in 2021.
"My son told me that the lady who was helping him said they had tried to call his mother, but that she didn't answer and said, 'Let's just give it to him anyway.' I still had no idea that he was going to be getting a vaccine; I was still waiting for a test," Happel told North State Journal.
When the case made its way to the N.C. Supreme Court, the justices ruled 5-2 to allow the case to proceed and not be dismissed. Earls joined the dissenting opinion of fellow Democrat Allison Riggs that Happel and Smith are not owed accountability by the local school board and medical provider.
Sarah Stevens, who spent nearly two decades as a state legislator, sponsored and voted for legislation to assert the rights of parents and defend families. Rising to become just the second female House Speaker Pro Tempore, she supported the 2023 Parental Bill of Rights Bill.
"Sarah Stevens has built a career as a common sense conservative who will uphold the constitutional rights of North Carolinians while radical liberal activist Anita Earls is in the pocket of rich out-of-state donors. This disturbing case is just one example of Sarah Stevens looking out for the rights of all North Carolinians," said an NCGOP spokesman.
