CRU received overwhelming support from elected Republicans for our ICE tabling event at ASU, and LD (Scottsdale Area) want to hear from members about the reactions you've received from students and Democrats. Many are asking about the university's response, while others are eager to support the club by purchasing our shirts-an opportunity that will greatly benefit our fundraising efforts.
