HHR Blog is pleased to bring Jim DiPeso to this week’s radio program. Jim DiPeso is the Vice President for Policy Direction for Republicans for Environmental Protection, a major national organization dedicated to applying Republican solutions to conservation. 

 Jim DiPeso was one of REP’s earliest members, as well as one of our founding directors. From 1996 to 2000, he served as Secretary of the Board of Directors. His outstanding contributions were recognized with REP’s first Founders’ Award at our September 2000 annual meeting in Jemez Springs, New Mexico.

In the spring of 2001, as REP experienced the greatest growth spurt in its history, Jim resigned from REP’s board and joined our staff as Communications Director. He was promoted in October 2002 to Policy Director and again in January 2009 to Vice President for Policy and Communications.

Jim’s policy expertise and way with words have served REP very well over the years.
