Jon Huntsman for President Announces Gen-H Leadership in New Hampshire

Manchester, NH – Jon Huntsman for President today announced the leadership team of Gen-H New Hampshire. This group of students and young professionals will work in their communities to organize events and communicate Governor Huntsman’s message to younger voters in their areas.

Leading Gen-H New Hampshire will be Robert Johnson, Chairman of the New Hampshire College Republican Federation.

“Our country is headed in the wrong direction, and Governor Jon Huntsman is the only Republican candidate with a clearly-defined vision for where the country needs to go,” said Robert Johnson. “More and more college students are graduating and facing the harsh reality that is the current economy. Only Governor Huntsman has presented a realistic plan for creating jobs, and only he has the record to back it up. Under his leadership, Utah led the nation in job creation and encouraged businesses to grow and thrive. He is running on his record, not away from it. Jon Huntsman's pragmatic leadership is exactly what the youth of America are looking for, and he is the candidate best positioned to defeat Barack Obama in 2012.”

“America's next generation deserve a leader who will tackle the tough issues with bold solutions, not empty rhetoric,” said Governor Huntsman. “We must act immediately and decisively to create economic opportunities and reduce the staggering levels of debt being heaped upon future generations. Our broad coalition of young supporters in New Hampshire will be critical to our success, and I am thankful to our leadership team for stepping up to the plate today to lead that effort.”
