(nobody on my team has actually asked anyone to text members), she alleged
Another person on my group got a threatening call from a $$$ RNC specialist for raising concerns about RNCs highest-paid suppliers

We need to decentralise the RNC out of DC and away from the lobbyists, the experts, and honestly the beholden politicians who determine the
celebrations instructions at the expenditure of what our citizens want, she said.Last week, Politico newspaper in a report said that
challengers have begun raising issues about her Sikh faith-- an advancement that has left some members of the committee unsettled.Dhillon

We are the celebration of faith, family, and flexibility, and these attacks have no location in our celebration or our politics, McDaniel
