Mighty American Strike Force
Mighty American Strike Force (MASF), formerly the Mighty Texas Strike Force (MTSF),[1] is an American political advocacy initiative hosted by the Tennessee Republican Party.[2]
History
MTSF was formed in 2000 by a group of conservative Texans to help elect then-Governor George W. Bush to the presidency.[1:1]
MASF engaged in get-out-the-vote operations in Pennsylvania in support of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump in 2016 and 2020.[1:2]
On October 12, 2024, American Values 2024 (AV24) published a call for volunteers to participate in a get-out-the-vote effort in Pennsylvania in partnership with MASF under the Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) banner.[3][4]
