Closed Primaries & Party Registration
ALGOP Resolution 2022-11
RESOLUTION CALLING FOR STATE PARTY REGISTRATION AND CLOSED PRIMARY ELECTIONS
Whereas in the State of Alabama, primary elections serve as the preliminary process by which candidates are nominated to represent either the Republican or Democratic Party, and
Whereas both parties have, throughout the years, periodically required voters to participate with voting consistency to avoid voters crossing from one party primary to another party primary and then engaging in the other party’s election and intentionally influencing the vote totals for candidates receiving votes in the nomination process, and
Whereas there are currently thirty-one (31) states that require voters to register by party, and
Whereas in states that party registration is required, in most instances only those voters that are registered with a party are permitted to vote in that party’s primary, and
Whereas open primaries have led to Democrat voters’ ability to legally cross over party lines and vote in the primary of the Republican party and influence who the Republican nominee will be in the General election, Delegates to the Republican National Convention, and County and State Republican Executive Committee positions, and
Whereas without party registration, candidates who qualify to run as Republicans have not established a record of party affiliation.
Now Therefore, Be It Resolved, that the Alabama Republican Executive Committee hereby states its support for party registration and closed primary elections in the state of Alabama. We believe that only those voters who are declared Republicans should decide who the Republican nominee will be in Alabama elections at the county, state, and federal levels.
Be It Further Resolved that we call on the Alabama Republican Executive Committee to provide copies of this Resolution to all Alabama Republican legislative members with the request to approve legislation in the 2023 session requiring party registration well in advance of the 2024 election in order to vote in the Republican Party primary or runoff.
This resolution adopted by the Alabama Republican Executive Committee on this the 13th day of August 2022, in session at Montgomery, Alabama.

Morgan County ALGOP Resolution
Calling for State Party Registration and Closed Primary Elections
WHEREAS, in the State of Alabama, primary elections serve as the preliminary process by which candidates are nominated to represent either the Republican or Democratic Party, and
WHEREAS, both parties have, throughout the years, periodically required voters to participate with voting consistency to avoid voters crossing from one party primary to another party primary and then engaging in the other party’s election and intentionally influencing the vote totals for candidates receiving votes in the nomination process, and
WHEREAS, there are currently thirty-one (31) states that require voters to register by party, and

WHEREAS, open primaries have led to Democrat voters’ ability to legally cross over party lines and vote in the primary of the Republican party and influence who the Republican nominee will be in the General election, Delegates to the Republican National Convention, and County and State Republican Executive Committee positions, and
WHEREAS, without party registration, candidates who qualify to run as Republicans have not established a record of party affiliation.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Morgan County Republican Executive Committee (MCREC), would like to state our support of party registration and closed primary elections in the state of Alabama. We believe that only those voters who are declared Republicans should be deciding who the Republican nominee will be in our Alabama elections at the County, State, and Federal level.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that we call on the Alabama Republican Executive Committee to pass this or similar Resolution at the next scheduled meeting and forward said Resolution to the Alabama Republican Legislative members to approve legislation in the 2023 session requiring party registration well in advance of the election in order to vote in the Republican Party primary.

For Our Representatives, Against the COVID-19 “Vaccine” Mandate
WHEREAS, the Biden administration is violating the Geneva Convention, Nuremberg Code, and Informed Consent by coercing people to take an experimental “vaccine.”
WHEREAS, the Department of Defense and even some corporations have participated in these violations and issued unlawful orders coercing and bullying people to take the experimental “vaccine” under undue influence and pressure from the Federal Government.
WHEREAS, there is no actual FDA approved version available and the law (reference 42 U.S. Code § 262 - Regulation of biological products) states that approval of biosimilar products cannot occur until after 12 years.
WHEREAS, multiple doctors, nurses, immunologists, scientists, and whistleblowers have come forward warning of serious and deadly side effects including but not limited to heart inflammation, blood clots, paralysis, increased risk of infection and transmission, Antibody- dependent Enhancement (ADE) and death.
WHEREAS, all available versions of the COVID-19 vaccine were developed and/or tested on
aborted baby cell lines and a whistleblower from Pfizer has provided Project Veritas proof of this information in form of corporate emails directing the suppression of this information, which is tantamount to deception.
WHEREAS, there are pending legal actions on some or all of these points.
AND WHEREAS, HB31 prohibits an employer, a place of public accommodation, or an occupational licensing board from discriminating based on immunization status, and would add Alabama to the growing list of States daring to defend the rights of the people to be secure in their individual medical freedom.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Morgan County Alabama Republican Party calls on the representatives of the legislature to immediately issue press releases supporting HB31, and to vote for it in the special session.

It is a matter of Congressional record that Dr Fauci, a career bureaucrat, was illegally funding
gain of research on a virus in the lab this outbreak originated from, so, with his decades long
dubious history, the information and directions being given by him and those with financial
interests in this matter are far less trustworthy than that of all the above cited experts, evidence,
and studies who stand in opposition. More information is coming out about his projects.
A Navy surgeon made a video citing official numbers that the shot was effectively killing more
active duty (by causing 80 cases of myocarditis with a 60%+ mortality within 5 years) than the
virus (20 uniformed deaths in 2020). The video was removed by YouTube.

Second Amendment Protection Act
.png/:/cr=t:0%25,l:0%25,w:100%25,h:100%25/rs=w:400,cg:true)
Morgan County ALGOP Resolution
Calling to Amend the Second Amendment Protection Act
WHEREAS, 23 March 2021 and again 25 January 2022, the Morgan County Republican Executive Committee unanimously passed Resolutions calling on State Legislators to protect citizens from unconstitutional infringements and pass Constitutional Carry and a Second Amendment Protection Act (aka Second Amendment Preservation Act, aka SAPA).
WHEREAS, Constitutional Carry passed into law, however, the Second Amendment Protection Act (Senate Bill 2) that was signed into law in April 2022 was watered down, merely withholding state enforcement and funds, still leaving Alabama citizens at the mercy of unconstitutional federal infringement of our rights- unlike in other states such as Missouri and Arkansas, whose representatives have dared defend the rights of their citizens.
WHEREAS, the SAPA was proposed in order to mirror the Act passed in Missouri (Missouri SB 367/HB85) which declares that laws, rules, orders, or other actions that collect data, restrict or prohibit the manufacture, ownership, and use of firearms, firearm accessories, or ammunition within this state, exceed the powers granted to the federal government.
WHEREAS, the SAPA proposed declares invalid in this state all federal acts, laws, executive orders, administrative orders, court orders, rules, and regulations, whether past, present, or future, that infringe on the people’s right to keep and bear arms as guaranteed by the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution, including those that impose a tax, levy, fee, or stamp on these items as specified in the bill; require the registration or tracking of these items or their owners; prohibit the possession, ownership, use, or transfer of a firearm; or order the confiscation of these items.
WHEREAS, the SAPA proposed set penalties against anyone enforcing any infringements in the state and declares it shall be the duty of the courts and law enforcement to protect the rights of law-abiding citizens from infringements by anybody under the color of law (state or federal)
WHEREAS, Amending the SAPA accordingly would support the ALGOP Party Platform and actually defend Alabama citizens’ rights.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Morgan County Alabama Republican Executive Committee again calls on the Alabama Legislature to dare to defend our rights by Amending the Second Amendment Protection Act to include the aforementioned language to support and defend the Constitution, and to set penalties against anyone enforcing infringements in our state.

Divisive Concepts in Schools
Morgan County ALGOP Resolution
Calling for the Removal of the Second Step Social Emotional Learning Program from All Alabama Public Schools
WHEREAS, in the State of Alabama, the state superintendent of schools purports a strategic plan supporting “Every child. Every chance. Every day,” and
WHEREAS, several public schools in the State of Alabama have adopted a social-emotional learning program entitled Second Step, and
WHEREAS, there is clear evidence that the Second Step program is pushing an agenda that is in direct conflict with the Alabama State Department of Education Strategic Plan, in that it promotes distinct anti-family undertones (including referring to parents as “roadblocks”), social activism, and a heavy focus on gay and transgender issues when discussing bullying and harassment, prioritizing these lessons over others, and
WHEREAS, the Second Step program admits in teacher lesson plans that “in some lessons, we’ll discuss personal and sensitive topics that could bring up strong emotions or opinions” placing Alabama educators, potentially, in the role of a licensed clinical psychologist, for which educators are not trained (nor “highly-qualified”) to teach, and unjustly placing the educator (as a revered leader in the community) in a position to lead students into a manner of thinking of which they themselves do not agree, and
WHEREAS, it is the role of the schools to focus on education and not discuss the children’s values, attitudes and beliefs as these are issues for parents to discuss with their children without the exposure to other ideas that may be political or controversial and not aligned with the family’s beliefs or values.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Morgan County Republican Executive Committee (MCREC), would like to state our support of the removal of the Second Step Social-Emotional Learning Program from all Alabama public schools and, for that matter, any social-emotional learning program that does not support “Every child. Every chance. Every day.”

Against Indoctrination and for Parent’s Choice
WHEREAS, the Alabama Republican Party Platform states, “We support options for learning, including: public education, parochial and private schools, charter schools, home-schooling, magnet schools and technical and vocational education. We recognize and support parental rights in their child’s education” and “We oppose the implementation of the Common Core Curriculum.” and “We believe that government should be limited...”
WHEREAS, we support our State Board of Education and governor in banning Critical Race Theory (CRT), which, whether called by this name or not, is the radical ideology that places race as the key component to one’s success in society over merit, wisdom, meaningful effort, or any other factors, thus serving to diminish individual achievements and divide America with new animus.
WHEREAS, we support our State Board of Education and governor in banning Common Core, which, whether called by this name or not, is the locking-in of our school systems to a set curriculum and method that prevents teachers from teaching in the methods most advantageous to the students and forces the teaching of things (such as CRT or political opinions as fact) that may be harmful to students’ development.
WHEREAS, CRT, Common Core, Social-emotional learning, Diversity Equity and Inclusion, and other forms of Marxist indoctrination are all historically linked to inductive style learning as a means of programming and demoralizing and are wholly inappropriate in our education system during formative years, as they restrict methods and options for learning and indoctrinate philosophies incompatible with our Constitutional Republic and the Republican Party Platform.
WHEREAS, a traditional deductive reasoning approach to education focused on the fundamentals of literacy, math, science, technology, history, health, and civics produces well-rounded, better, and more productive citizens.
WHEREAS, school vouchers, or reallocation of tax dollars to parents/legal guardians so the money “follows the student” is ideal, as it encourages competition and learning, provided there are no provisos that stipulate a biased curriculum or method be taught, making parents and educators beholden to an undesirable system.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Morgan County Alabama Republican Party calls on the
Alabama legislators, in furtherance of the Republican Party Platform, to reject CRT and Common Core by any name and support legislation (HB9/SB7 and HB11) to this effect and for Parent’s Choice (HB245/ SB140) to be amended to draw and allocate funds proportionally based on the public school system which would otherwise serve the individual student, without any adulteration or stipulations beyond a broad/ generic requirement for the aforementioned fundamentals, and limit government involvement by returning to an education system that frees local educators to teach the students in effective manners and stops them from being locked in to a one size-fits-all style or curriculum rooted in pushing a politicized anti-traditional American agenda. We further resolve that the public schools should be allowed the freedom of teaching and assessments that the private schools have and the students be given curriculum options that allow flexibility in course of study for pursuing college and/or a trade.

Christians Warned To NOT Take Gov’t Funds for Homeschooling
Christians are fleeing godless and radicalized government schools by the millions, but now many states are working to use tax money to entice these families back into the system under the guise of “school choice” and vouchers, warns Exodus Mandate director Lt. Col. E. Ray Moore (Ret.) in this interview on Conversations That Matter with The New American magazine’s Alex Newman. “When you reach for the money, the handcuffs go on,” he added, saying tax money for homeschooling and Christians schools threatens the liberty and independence of both. Ray also addresses the objections of those supporting the vouchers, saying churches and private associations can fill the void. https://thenewamerican.com/christians-warned-to-not-take-govt-funds-for-homeschooling-private-school-ray-moore/

Calling for Limiting the Power of the Health Officer
WHEREAS, the position of Health Officer is an unelected government position with an incredible amount of power.
WHEREAS, per Sen Jim McClendon of Springville Al, “We now have a private club that names the members of the Board of Health and then those members instead select the state health officer. And that state health officer has no accountability back to the executive branch or the legislative branch. His only allegiance is back to this private club, the Medical Association”
WHEREAS, 1819 News reported the Health Officer is, “Powerful enough to shut down businesses, shutter church doors, and close schools. This was done in Alabama during the Covid pandemic, and all it took was a declaration from the Public Health Officer. Neither the governor nor the legislature had the authority to override his decision. No other state in the nation allows this kind of autonomy."
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Morgan County Alabama Republican Party calls on the Alabama legislators to resurrect and support SB 240 from 2021, which would revise and limit the authority of Health Officer to one accountable to the Governor and The People.
