CRP Partners with GROW Elect for Latino Media Training

LOS ANGELES — The California Republican Party's relationship with GROW Elect, a political action commitee that was established to recruit, endorse, train, and help fund California Latino Republicans and independents for elected office, took an important step last week as the two organizations presented a day-long media training workshop at Univision's Los Angeles facility.
 
The training, which included a number of Latino elected officials and potential candidates from the Los Angeles area, took place Friday and featured Q&A sessions with CRP Chairman Tom Del Beccaro and former Senate Republican Leader Dennis Hollingsworth. GROW Elect consultants Luis Alvarado and Moises Merino were also on hand for the training.
  
"This is part of keeping our promise to establish a stronger, more consistent Republican presence in the Latino community and to continue our support of GROW Elect and their impressive efforts," said Chairman Del Beccaro. "We're excited to partner with GROW Elect, not just with training but with other resources that will help promote their bottom-up approach to connect with Latino voters throughout California."
 
The CRP and GROW Elect will offer a number of media training workshops for Latino Republicans across the state, with two more sessions planned for Sacramento and Fresno before the end of the year.
