Who We Are
Wichita County Republican Women is a group of women and men, working people and retirees, public and private citizens who are interested in the furthering of the goals of conservative citizens. We are affiliated with the Texas Federation of Republican Women and the National Federation of Republican Women.
We meet from 11:30 AM to 1:00 PM on the first Wednesday of each month in the meeting room of the Firefly Bar and Grill, 2927 Southwest Parkway, Wichita Falls, TX. Our programs cover issues of the day, current public servants, and public servant candidates during the election season. This location is subject to change, so please check our social media sites (Truth Social, Instagram, X) for updates on upcoming events.
Lunch may be ordered, and if so, is paid for individually. Republican guests may be brought by members as long as the guest is included in the member’s response to the monthly RSVP email. This ensures that enough chairs/tables are set up in the meeting room before the meeting. The business meeting and program starts at 12 noon, so if lunch is desired, be sure to come early enough to allow time for ordering and receiving food by the time the meeting and program start.
Although our organization is Wichita County Republican Women, we welcome and encourage men to attend our meetings and join as Affiliate Members.

Baby Gabriel was born in Texas on Wednesday after his surrogate mother bravely refused demands from his biological parents to abort him over a treatable heart condition.
His birth comes one day after Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton stepped in to secure legal protections ensuring the baby would receive life-saving care.
Immediately following his birth, the newborn was transported to the NICU for treatment of his hypoplastic left heart syndrome, a serious congenital defect that had been diagnosed at around 20 weeks of pregnancy.
The surrogate, McKenna West, an Alaskan nurse and single mother of two, had entered into a surrogacy agreement through Worldwide Surrogacy Specialists with the California couple, identified in court documents as Nausheen Gilkar and Omar Ahmed.
The pregnancy proceeded normally until the anatomy scan revealed the diagnosis of hypoplastic left heart syndrome, in which the left side of the heart is severely underdeveloped and unable to pump oxygen-rich blood effectively.
She researched the condition, learned of the expertise available in Texas, and relocated to Dallas County seeking both the legal protections given to the unborn under Texas law and access to medical teams experienced in treating the defect.
West even offered to assume full responsibility for the child or arrange adoption, releasing the couple from further obligations, but the biological parents rejected her plea.
Instead, the "parents" pursued legal action aiming to compel her to give birth in California, where they could withhold consent for the necessary surgeries to save his life.
They wanted to let him die.
Paxton’s office stepped in the day before Baby Gabriel's birth.
The Attorney General formally notified UT Southwestern Medical Center and Children’s Medical Center of Dallas of their legal duty to provide medically necessary, life-saving care upon birth regardless of the parentage dispute’s outcome.
Paxton filed a motion asking the district court to issue orders directing the baby’s medical care upon birth, barring his removal from the state, and setting an expedited hearing if the intended parents refuse consent for treatment.
His office also formally notified UT Southwestern Medical Center and Children’s Medical Center of Dallas of their legal obligation under Texas law to provide medically necessary, life-saving care, noting that physicians may administer emergency life-sustaining treatment without parental consent or a court order and urging the hospitals to reject any attempt to transfer the newborn out of state.
Paxton stated, “Baby Gabriel deserves a chance at life, and I will not allow anyone to unlawfully deny him medically necessary care. My office will use every tool available to protect innocent lives and ensure that every child receives the care required under Texas law.”Baby Gabriel deserves a chance at life, and I will not allow anyone to unlawfully deny him medically necessary care...

Come to hear from one of the candidates for Governor on January 28 at 6 pm. "Doc" Pete Chambers, Lt Col (Retired) & Special Forces Green Beret , will be in Wichita Falls for a Meet 'n Greet.
WCRW would have to invite all the Republican contenders for Governor of Texas, a fairly long list, so this is a chance we are unable to provide to hear from this candidate running against Abbott for the Republican Party slot.
