Gibson for Congress Campaign Update. 9/16/2010

Dear Friends,

The countdown has begun! Only 47 days left until we send a fiscally conservative combat veteran to Washington. We know Chris Gibson will stand up and fight the taxing, spending and borrowing in which those in Congress continually engage.

As the campaign season continues to heat up, you will see television ads for both Chris Gibson and his opponent. Noticeably absent from all three of the incumbent’s commercials is any mention of his voting record in Congress. He fails to include his support for the failed stimulus bills, his flip-flopped position on healthcare, and his co-sponsorship of Card Check, which denies workers their right to a secret ballot.

As our campaign continues to grow, we are pleased to announce another satellite office in Glens Falls at 20 Ridge Street. Special thanks to our Warren County team for opening this office.

In case you missed it, see the news links below!
