ENDORSEMENT

Today, Erik Aadland, CD7 Republican candidate for Congress, announces a formal endorsement from the Tea Party Express.

The letter from Sal Russo, Co-Founder and Chief Strategist for the Tea Party Express, reads:

Dear Erik,

“It has been an honor for the Tea Party Express to endorse your campaign for election to represent the Colorado 7th Congressional District. We are confident that you will continue to uphold the conservative values that make America such a success. Please accept this contribution of $1,000 as a token of  our strong support for your campaign.

Propelled by millions of tea party supporters across the country, Tea Party Express has become the most aggressive and influential nation tea party group in the political arena. We are committed to identifying and supporting conservative candidates and causes that will champion tea party values and return our country to the Constitutional principles that have made America the “shining city on a hill.”

Tea Party Express is proud to stand for four simple principles:

• Reduce the size and intrusiveness of government
• Stop raising our taxes
• Cease out-of-control spending
• Bring back American prosperity

As the nation’s largest grassroots tea party political action committee, we identified you as the superior candidate to continue the fight to reduce the size, cost and intrusiveness of the federal government while enacting pro-growth policies that will restore American prosperity. Our economic future is clouded by excessive government spending, a sky-rocketing national debt and economic policies that weaken growth and deny far too many people the opportunity to realize the American dream.

It is critical for your campaign to be successful as your victory is of the utmost importance to the nation as conservatives unite to terminate Democrat control. We know you will serve our country with distinction in the United States House of Representatives, and we look forward to working with you assiduously as a national leader to restore fiscal responsibility in Congress.”

Sincerely,
Sal Russo
Co-Founder and Chief Strategist
