The Hill highlight's RNC chairman Reince Priebus's vow to change the party's performance with minority voters: "Reince Priebus is staking his legacy as Republican National Committee
chairman on improving the party's performance with minority voters. 'I just sort of reached a boiling point on the issue,' Priebus told The
Hill in an interview at RNC headquarters on Friday. 'I want to fix these
problems.'"
The article continues about the conservative Republican leader's vow: "Priebus spoke shortly after an RNC event saluting 'black Republican
trailblazers' at the Capitol Hill Press Club. Speaking to a room full of
predominantly black businessmen, community leaders, party activists and
dignitaries, Priebus said he was committed to 'building long term,
lasting, genuine, and authentic relationships' in places where the
Republican Party 'just hasn’t been.' 'We’re here because we know we need to grow our party,' Priebus told the
group. 'We must take our message to every neighborhood and every
community, and as we know, we’ve got a lot of ground to make up with the
black community.'"
Booker Rising response: We've heard this talk many times before from RNC honchos. When are we gonna see some real action and resources in the streets & on airwaves to putting this claim to work?
