ARIZONA
SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE DAVID GOWAN TO RUN FOR U.S. CONGRESS
Conservative Republican with Proven
Record will make D.C. “Respect the West”
Phoenix, AZ (October 5th,
2015) – Arizona Speaker of
the House David Gowan today announced his candidacy for Arizona’s First
Congressional District.
“It
has been my sincere honor to serve the people of Arizona in the House of
Representatives for the past seven years.
Since first taking office in 2009, I have focused on the conservative
values instilled in me by my father and refined through years of fighting for
our shared Arizonan values.”
“While
most candidates rely on promises of what they will do, I prefer to be judged on
my conservative record and leadership.
As your Congressman, I will continue working to shrink the size and
scope of government, I will fight to restore our Constitutional rights, I will
make securing our borders the priority it ought to be, and I will work to
ensure that our government’s focus is on getting out of the way of the private
sector so that we can unleash our economy and create the millions of jobs we
need to get our nation back on track. I
will also stand for our values, work to defund Planned Parenthood, protect
innocent life, defend our family values, and stop Common Core.”
Speaker
Gowan continued, “We’ve got a good field of nice candidates who will claim they
are the greatest conservatives of all time.
Some have no record, some have small records, and some have mixed
records – the biggest difference between us all is that with me, the voters
know they can rely on my campaign promises to be kept, and my positions here in
Arizona to be exactly the same once I get to Washington, D.C.”
David
Gowan was first elected to the Arizona House of Representatives in 2008, where
he took the lead in organizing the legislature’s conservatives into a
meaningful and often decisive force. He
founded the Liberty Caucus which grew from five members into the success it is
today. In fact, the entire current
elected House and Senate leadership are members of the Liberty Caucus.
Gowan
has an extensive conservative record and boasts the best record of any
candidate running, on issues like spending, taxes, protecting life, 2nd
Amendment rights, state sovereignty, border security, school choice, fighting
Common Core, and more. He is also the
only candidate running who has proven he knows how to shrink government. In fact, the $11.2 Billion state budget he
inherited is now $2 Billion smaller 7 years later.
David
Gowan is Southern Arizona’s first Speaker in approximately 30 years. He and his wife Jessica, and their two boys
live in Cochise County.
