NEW RPOF LOYALTY OATH

AND CODE OF ETHICS

More Announcements Below

New RPOF Loyalty Oath and Code of Ethics.

The Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) has issued a new party loyalty oath.  In addition to clarifying the language of the party loyalty oath, all state and county Republican Executive Committee members are now required to abide by the principles of ethical behavior contained in the RPOF Code of Ethics.
As a result of these changes, all Republican Executive Committee members will need to execute and file a new Oath of Party Loyalty and Ethical Conduct with the BREC.  You may review it here by clicking on this document link: RPOF Oath of Party Loyalty and Ethical Conduct.  We will need an original signed and witnessed hardcopy, and will make the form available at our upcoming BREC Meetings.  We will have a table reserved specifically for this purpose.  If you have any questions, please call Legal Counsel David Di Pietro at 954-462-5500.  These forms are due by May 31, 2011, and must be completed by our May meeting.

RICO PETROCELLI IS THE NEW BREC EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

Rico Petrocelli

Rico Petrocelli

DECEMBER 27, 2010

BROWARD COUNTY – Former Plantation City Councilman and longtime BREC Member Rico Petrocelli will begin as the new BREC Executive Director on January 3, 2011.  Mr. Petrocelli brings a unique background of experience in business, politics, and media to the position.

Mr. Petrocelli served on the Plantation City Council from 2005 through 2008, and was the Council’s President in 2008.  He currently serves as a Commissioner on the Broward County Housing Authority, and was appointed to the Census Board by Plantation Councilman Jerry Fadgen – also a longtime BREC Member and current candidate for Plantation Mayor.

Mr. Petrocelli is also the owner and founder of The Plantation Journal, a local, community based daily online newspaper.
In his 40-years of work experience, Mr. Petrocelli has displayed a proven ability to motivate others, build effective teams, and get the job done.
“What I want to bring to BREC is teamwork – where we work together hitting on all eight cylinders with the common goal of electing Republicans,” said Mr. Petrocelli.  “We need to take advantage of the Republican tsunami created in the last election and carry it forward to the local, statewide, and federal elections over the next two years.  We also need to maintain and register new Republicans right here in Broward, reach out to Republicans in the business community, and work as hard as we can to represent the almost 250,000 Republicans in Broward County.”
“I know that Rico will bring the energy, enthusiasm, and commitment to the BREC that we need to strengthen our local party,” said Richard DeNapoli, Chairman of the Republican Party of Broward.
