Since 1855, the Mercer County Republican Party has been committed to helping Republican candidates get elected to office at the local, state, and federal levels. Our elected committee members represent various voting districts in Mercer County and campaign for and recruit candidates for offices ranging from school board to county treasurer to Pennsylvania governor. Committee persons are elected at the primary election in even numbered years. In 1991, the Republican State Committee adopted a set of principles that our local party also believes and works to promote in Mercer County. We believe that government is a means of securing freedom and maintaining a system of justice. We believe that government must be limited and function with integrity while maintaining accountability to the people it represents. We believe that quality in education depends on a working partnership between students, parents, educators, and communities. We believe that the conservation of our environment and its natural resources must be protected. This is particularly true regarding the preservation of prime farmland. The Mercer County Republican Party serves as a link between Mercer County voters and our policy makers. In addition to recruiting and campaigning for candidates, our party helps to shape the agenda of government by offering alternative policies to our elected officials. We influence the agenda of government by convincing our members and other registered voters to support and advocate certain policy initiatives. Our members participate in Republican State Committee activities to affect change throughout the state of Pennsylvania by helping to elect judges and other statewide candidates. Cindy Robbins, Scott Boyd and Walter Richardson are Mercer County's State Committee representatives. The Mercer County Republican Party with its sister organization, the Mercer County Council of Republican Women, is the entry point into politics in Pennsylvania. For more information about joining the Republican Party, please contact our chairman.

The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) is a professional investment management organization with a critical purpose – to help provide a foundation upon which Canadians build financial security in retirement. We invest the assets of the Canada Pension Plan (CPP). We invest those assets not currently needed by the CPP to pay pension, disability and survivor benefits. CPPIB is headquartered in Toronto with offices in Hong Kong, London, Luxembourg, New York, and Sao Paulo. We invest in public equities, private equities, bonds, real estate, infrastructure and other areas. The Fund`s current assets total over $200 billion, ranking us among the 10 largest retirement funds in the world. Our assets are projected to reach $300 billion by 2020, $500 billion by 2030, and more than $1 trillion by 2045.
The U.S. Navy is comprised of more than 500,000 Sailors and civilians, nearly 300 ships and submarines, and more than 3,700 aircraft. Our Sailors serve on the water (aboard ships); under the water (aboard submarines); over the water (in planes and helicopters) and away from the water (ashore in the U.S. and around the world). What happens on the water affects us all. To understand the impact the U.S. Navy makes in our daily lives, think of the 70-80-90 rule. Seventy percent of the earth is covered by water, 80 percent of the earth`s population lives near the ocean, and 90 percent of international trade travels by sea. The U.S. Navy meets threats far away, so those threats cannot harm our citizens at home. They protect and defend freedom around the world and also offer opportunities for a great career.
