T.C Ryan has apologized for his previous mistakes and has worked hard over the last several years to make sure his past does not dictate his future.  He has been a tireless volunteer for the Republican Party and continues to be one.  I stand behind T.C Ryan because he has proven to be kind, loyal and a dedicated volunteer promoting Republican principles.  His past cannot be changed but he is trying hard to forge a better future and I will continue to support and mentor him along his journey.  The Republican Party is the Party of hope and second chances. We have many members from diverse backgrounds, some with a sorted past who have found a home in the GOP, as a volunteer, in an appointed position, or as an elected official.  As Chairman, I welcome everyone into  our Party, even those with a sorted past who are striving to reconcile their past with their future.  I continue to offer my support to T.C. Ryan.
Respectfully,
Randy Brogdon
Chairman, Oklahoma Republican Party
