Meet our President
Washington Federation Republican Women - State President
Billie Jean Liedahl
As a member in good standing of the Silverdale-Seabeck Republican Women’s Club (SSRW) in Silverdale, WA, I am honored to be President of the Washington Federation of Republican Women (WFRW). I have also served WFRW as Membership Secretary from 2017-2020 and I will do my very best to represent WFRW and all of our members. I have been a member of SSRW since 2008. I am a Past President and over the years, I have served as the club’s Recording Secretary, 1st Vice President/Programs, and 2nd Vice President/Membership. I have also served as Parliamentarian, and been a member on many committees sometimes as chairman: Awards, Movie Nights, the Fashion Gala Fundraiser, and a Joint Club Barn Sale, just to mention a few. I continue to faithfully serve as an Administrative Leader of Bible Study Fellowship International in the Bremerton Day Women’s class.
I retired from US West in Seattle (now Century Link) in 2000 with 32 years of service. My professional career began in San Diego, California in 1966 in Operator Services with Pacific Telephone & Telegraph. After Operator Services, I was assigned to data collection, then promoted to system administration, technical software support, and finally as a Certified Disaster Planning and Recovery specialist for systems and sites for the 13 states within the then US West territory.
