Erik is the right choice for Congress in Colorado’s 7th District,” said Governor Perry. “He has an impressive track record as a decorated combat veteran as well as a successful career as an energy policy expert.

Erik’s remarks:
“I’m deeply honored to have Governor Perry’s endorsement,” said Erik. “It means a lot to have the support of someone whose perspective is backed by years of experience at the highest levels, dedicating himself in service to our country.
