The New York Young Republican Club (NYYRC) is an organization for members of the Republican Party between the ages of 18 and 40 in Manhattan. The New York Young Republican Club is the oldest and largest chapter in the United States,[1][2] founded in 1911 with predecessor organizations going back to 1856.[3] The club is affiliated with and officially recognized by the New York State Young Republicans[4] and the Young Republican National Federation, as well as the borough,[5] state, and national Republican committees.
New York City Republican organizations were once a bastion of moderate Republicans with liberal or centrist views on social issues, but since the election of Donald Trump have moved sharply to the political right.[6]
