 About Us 

Founded in 1981 on America’s tropical frontier amidst the excitement of the Reagan Revolution, the Miami Young Republicans grew quickly as the region became the home of millions of freedom-loving capitalists who escaped the clutches of communism in Cuba, Nicaragua, and Venezuela, or who fled communist guerrillas in Colombia and other parts of South America.

​

Today, Miami Young Republicans is America's most successful YR organization — a powerhouse electing Young Republicans, influencing public policy, passing legislation, and cultivating a new generation of leaders. Our organization serves as a hemispheric voice for freedom and democracy, as a key supporter of anti-communist activists, and as a catalyst of Miami’s emergence into a global metropolis and model for center-right governance.

​

Recently, our award-winning work was instrumental to turning the electoral tide in South Florida, electing President Trump and Governor DeSantis, and flipping Miami-Dade to Republican for the first time in decades.
