Amid Donald Trump's efforts to assert control over the Republican National Committee (RNC), a member of the committee is advocating for neutrality until Trump officially becomes the presidential nominee. Henry Barbour, a national committeeman from Mississippi, is circulating two draft resolutions for consideration at the RNC's upcoming March meeting in Houston.
Barbour's first proposed resolution aims to keep the RNC neutral throughout the presidential primary, refraining from taking sides until a candidate secures the necessary delegates to become the nominee. The second resolution emphasizes that the RNC will not cover the legal expenses of any candidate for federal or state office, focusing instead on activities directly related to the 2024 election.
