MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES
SUPPORT OF GEORGIA ELECTED OFFICALS AND LEADERS
Boston, MA – Mitt Romney today
announced the support of elected officials and leaders from Georgia.
“I’m
proud to earn the support of so many great conservatives in Georgia,”
said Mitt Romney. “They recognize, like most Americans, that our
economy is struggling today because of President Obama’s failed
policies. I look forward to working with them to bring my message of
job creation and reduced spending to all Georgians.”
Announcing
his support, Labor Commissioner Mark Butler said, “Mitt Romney has the
temperament, experience, and leadership we need to move our country
forward. I am confident he will put policies in place that will foster
job growth and encourage businesses to hire because he spent his life
in the private sector and understands how the real economy works. I am
proud to support his campaign for president.”
