National Federation of Republican Women
Visits President, Mrs. Bush at White House


WASHINGTON, D.C. – More than 275 leaders of the National Federation of Republican Women (NFRW) visited the White House for afternoon tea on March 12.

Mrs. Bush invited the NFRW to the White House to thank the organization for its participation in education and literacy programs and to encourage members to continue their education advocacy efforts. The NFRW’s Capitol Regents also met with President George W. Bush in the Oval Office. 

Group photographs of the Regents and individual photographs of the Capitol Regents with Mrs. Bush were taken in the Blue Room. Attendees enjoyed refreshments on the State Floor of the White House, where they had the opportunity to view the historic furnishings and art work in the Red, Blue and Green rooms, the State Dining Room and the East Room.

Founded in 1938, the NFRW is one of the largest women’s political organizations in the country with more than 1,800 local clubs in all 50 states and in the U.S. territories. The grassroots organization recruits and elects Republican candidates, advocates the Party’s philosophy and initiatives, and empowers women in the political process.
