ARIZONA CONGRESSMAN JOHN SHADEGG ENDORSES

JIM WARD FOR CONGRESS IN 2010

Scottsdale, AZ (January 22, 2010) — Jim Ward, Republican candidate for Arizona’s 5th Congressional District, today announced that U.S. Congressman John Shadegg (AZ-3) endorses his candidacy for Congress.

“I am proud to endorse Jim Ward. His focus on fiscal responsibility, tax reform and smaller government give him the conservative credentials to be the right kind of Representative we need in Congress today, and he is certainly the right candidate to beat Harry Mitchell this fall,” said Congressman Shadegg. “As an experienced businessman, Jim knows how to balance a budget, create jobs, and curb needless deficit spending. He will bring these important skills to Washington which will serve him well in his commitment to help create a more efficient, less intrusive government that promotes individual liberty and free markets,” he added.

“To be endorsed by such a true conservative warrior and leader as Congressman John Shadegg is an honor for me personally and also an inspiration to take back the House of Representatives this November. My promise to him is that I will be successful and I will spread his conservative legacy to the neighboring 5th District,” said Jim Ward. “I couldn’t have asked for a stronger vote of confidence to demonstrate to Arizonans that I can serve them well as their representative.”

Congressman Shadegg announced his retirement from Congress just last week and has declared his ongoing commitment to the mission of promoting conservative principles while remaining committed to preserving America’s freedom.

HARRY MITCHELL MUST ACCOUNT FOR BARACK OBAMA’S BROKEN PROMISES

Barack Obama floated into the White House on the mantra of “hope” and “change.” Desperate Americans, out of work, and witnessing the decline of their retirement savings wanted the newly elected president to succeed. Unfortunately, Barack Obama has failed to deliver on the promises he made to 300 million Americans.

Harry Mitchell, a loyal foot soldier for Nancy Pelosi and the Obama agenda, has not forcefully held the President accountable for his broken promises. Mitchell has stayed silent and passive while Barack Obama has conducted health care negotiations behind closed doors, passed a stimulus bill that has sputtered and granted terrorists the same legal rights as patriotic Americans.

This is not the “hope” and “change” the American voters were promised. This is not the kind of leadership that the people of the 5th Congressional District expect. The voters of the 5th Congressional District deserve brave leadership from their representatives in Congress.

The $787 billion stimulus package’s main goal was to put Americans back to work. In this respect it has been an abysmal failure. President Obama and Harry Mitchell would have created the same number of jobs in the past year if the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act cost a mere $787! Today, more Americans are out of work, more employers are reluctant to hire, and the economy shows no sign of improving. Barack Obama promised us the unemployment rate would never rise above 8% if the stimulus bill was passed; the unemployment rate is now over 10%.

How much higher must the unemployment rate go before Harry Mitchell admits the stimulus bill was a mistake? How many more Americans must lose their jobs before Harry Mitchell states his regret on voting for a bill that has only succeeded in saddling our children with more debt? How many more TRILLION dollar spending bills must we endure before the Democrats in Congress are held accountable?

Every day I speak with the voters of my 5th Congressional district and the message is clear. We all agree that our leaders in Washington must cut costs and create jobs, not raise taxes and build more bureaucracies.

No amount of words by Barack Obama, in his State of the Union speech, or the inaction from Harry Mitchell can undo the damage inflicted in the last year. Arizona and the 5th Congressional district deserve better. Join team Wnuck today!
