CYR Caucuses
Find your community within the Chicago Young Republicans. Our caucuses provide opportunities to engage more deeply, build relationships around shared interests, and advance Republican ideals throughout Chicago.
CYR Caucuses are groups that advocate for the representation of their respective interests within CYR and the Republican Party. They provide members with opportunities to engage more deeply, build community around shared interests or experiences, and promote Republican ideals throughout Chicago and beyond.
Any group of five Members of CYR may petition the Board of Governors to charter a Caucus to forward ideas, advance an issue, or represent a shared interest or constituency.
