What Is It?
The Ronald Reagan Black Tie and Blue Jeans BBQ is an
annual event put on by the Alachua County Republican Party.
This year marks the 9th Edition of this great event, that is becoming
legendary in Florida.
It isn't really a "Black Tie" event. Black Tie
and Blue Jeans is really just a way of saying, "wear your good pair
of blue jeans."
 In
2011, our guest speaker is a wonderful Republican, former Republican
Majority Leader in the Florida House of Representatives, and
challenger to replace Bill Nelson in the United States Senate in
2012, our friend Adam Hasner.
Adam Hasner is lifelong Republican deeply committed to limited
government, free markets, American values and a strong national
defense.
Adam was first elected in 2002 to serve as a part-time state
legislator representing Palm Beach and Broward Counties. Serving
alongside Marco Rubio in the Florida House for six years, in 2007,
Adam was selected by then-Speaker Rubio to serve as Majority Leader
for the Republican caucus, a position he held for four years until
being term limited from office in 2010.
In 2009, Adam fought against the impacts of the
federal stimulus and successfully rejected nearly $500 million in
unemployment funds that would have resulted in a tax increase for
Florida businesses.
In 2010, well before the issue became part of national headlines,
Adam led the House Republicans in demanding the United States
Congress pass a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution,
and then served as the founding national Co-Chairman of the citizen
action group, Pass The Balanced Budget Amendment.
