KC Crosbie Takes the Helm as Co-Chair of the Republican National Committee
Washington, D.C. – Excitement and anticipation filled the air as KC Crosbie was elected as the new co-chair of the Republican National Committee (RNC) during the winter meeting held in our nation’s capital. This significant election marks the beginning of a new chapter for the committee as Crosbie takes over the reins from Lara Trump, who has played a pivotal role during her tenure as co-chair.
A New Era Begins
During her inaugural speech, Crosbie expressed heartfelt gratitude for the opportunity to serve in this influential position, reflecting on the legacy left by her predecessor. Lara Trump had been credited for helping the Republican Party achieve victories in the last election cycle, and Crosbie is poised to build on that success moving forward.
Crosbie is no stranger to politics, having established herself as a key figure in Kentucky’s political landscape. She previously served as a member of the Lexington-Fayette Urban County Government City Council and made her bid for the position of Kentucky state treasurer in 2011.
Experience Counts
She first made her mark on the RNC back in 2012, when she was elected to represent Kentucky at the state convention. More recently, her role as RNC treasurer highlighted her capability in managing party finances and ensuring fiscal responsibility—a skill that will benefit her greatly now that she steps into the co-chair position.
The excitement around Crosbie’s election is palpable, with many looking to her leadership as a beacon of hope for the party’s future. Andy Westberry, a spokesperson for the Republican Party of Kentucky (RPK), praised her long-standing dedication to conservative values both in Kentucky and across the nation. Her commitment to promoting a transparent and fair electoral process, while maximizing resources in essential battleground states, shows Crosbie’s readiness to lead.
Family and Community Focus
Outside of her political career, KC Crosbie is a devoted family woman, married to her husband, Scott Crosbie. Together, they have three children: daughters Kirby, 15, and Cate, 12, and their son, Mac, who is 10 years old. The Crosbie family actively participates in their community through the Centenary United Methodist Church in Lexington, where KC engages in children’s ministry and supports recreational activities.
Looking Ahead
As Crosbie embarks on this new journey, she already has a clear vision of where she wants to take the RNC. Her strategic mindset and proven dedication to conservative principles are expected to help the party continue its momentum. Fellow Kentucky RNC member John McCarthy has also congratulated Crosbie, noting that her experience and approach will significantly benefit the committee.
While Crosbie steps into her new role, Joe Gruters, a well-respected state senator from Florida, will assume her previous position as RNC treasurer, ensuring continuity in leadership and financial oversight. Crosbie famously announced her intent to run for co-chair shortly after Lara Trump’s resignation in December, quickly gaining the endorsement of former President Trump, who referred to her as an “America First Patriot.” Such high praises reflect not just her fundraising success, but also her overall contributions to the party.
A Bright Future for the RNC
Crosbie’s election as co-chair is not just a win for her personally but signifies hope for the future of the Republican Party. Her leadership in Kentucky politics, combined with her unwavering commitment to the party’s national agenda, signifies a promising new era that many will be watching closely. The Republican Party of Kentucky has already expressed their pride in Crosbie for earning the trust of both the president and RNC members.
As KC Crosbie takes office, the Republican Party looks to her leadership to navigate the challenges ahead while continuing to uphold its core values and making strides nationally. The excitement is building, and all eyes are on her as she takes on this important leadership role.
