SENATOR JOHN THUNE ENDORSES MITT ROMNEY FOR PRESIDENT
Boston, MA –
Mitt Romney today announced the support of South Dakota Senator John
Thune. Senator Thune will serve as a Co-Chair of Mitt Romney’s National
Advisory Council.
“I
am honored to have Senator Thune’s support,” said Mitt Romney. “On the
issues that I have been fighting for in my campaign – creating a better
business environment, lessening the regulatory burden, and ending
Washington’s spending addiction – Senator Thune has been a leading
voice in the Senate. He will be a trusted adviser as I bring this
message to voters, work to reverse President Obama’s failed policies,
and reform Washington.”
Announcing
his support, Senator John Thune said, “The next election will be the
most important in generations. We can choose to continue on the same
path with four more years of President Obama’s failed policies or we
can choose a leader who has the needed experience to lead an economic
recovery. Mitt Romney has shown throughout his life in the private
sector, as leader of the Olympics, as governor, and in this campaign
that he will not back down from difficult challenges. His plans to
revitalize the private sector and restore our country’s fiscal health
are drawn from his 25 year career as a conservative businessman.
Washington could use these commonsense principles at such a critical
time.”
