MITT ROMNEY ANNOUNCES SUPPORT OF FORMER
WASHINGTON STATE SENATOR DINO ROSSI
Boston, MA – Mitt Romney
today announced the support of former Washington State Senator Dino
Rossi.
“Dino
Rossi has been a champion in the state of Washington for the issues I
am fighting for in my campaign – it is an honor to have his support,”
said Mitt Romney. “Dino showed in the State Senate that it's possible
to write a responsible bipartisan budget and hold government
accountable – I hope to bring these same principles to Washington so
that government can balance its budget.”
“Mitt
Romney’s background and knowledge of the economy are unparalleled in
this field,” said Dino Rossi. “As a businessman, he knows you
can't
spend more than you take in and that federal regulations too often
get
in the way of our ability to create jobs and prosperity. I urge
my
fellow Washingtonians to support Mitt Romney because our economy can’t
afford four more years of failure from the White House. The most
important issue facing the federal government is to create a
sustainable budget that doesn't continue to drain resources away from
private employers and innovative entrepreneurs. Mitt Romney is uniquely
qualified to lead this effort.”
Background
on Dino Rossi:
Dino Rossi Served In The Washington
State Senate From 1997 To 2003. Rossi
served on the Ways and Means Committee and helped the state close a
budget gap without raising taxes. Rossi is a two-time Republican
