Kasich for America Announces Connecticut Leadership Team
Today
Kasich for America announced Ohio Gov. John Kasich's leadership team in
Connecticut prior to the state's April 26th primary election.
Under
the chairmanship of State Senator Tony Hwang, who endorsed Gov. Kasich
last month, the team includes a number of prominent former and current
public officials from around the state.
Said Hwang, "I'm
looking forward to working with these colleagues and friends to engage
Connecticut voters on behalf of Gov. Kasich. His brand of commonsense,
results-oriented conservatism is resonating, as is the message that
only John Kasich can defeat Hillary Clinton in the fall."
"It's
exciting to see our team in Connecticut expand," said Kasich. "I'm
grateful to Tony Hwang and every other leader who's come on board for
their willingness to share our message of results in their
communities."

Gov.
Kasich is
running for President to help Americans restore our nation, live in
safety and pass on prosperity to those who come after us—and he’s got
the experience to help us do it. He was reelected last year by a
30-point margin after working with his fellow Ohioans to turn an $8
billion shortfall into a $2 billion surplus, cut taxes $5 billion and
create more than 400,000 new private sector jobs. As chair of the
Budget Committee in Congress he led the effort to balance the federal
budget for the first time in a generation and served 18 years on the
House Armed Services Committee where he helped enact President Reagan's
national security agenda. He has also had a successful career as
an investment banker, New York Times best-selling author and
at FOX News. He and his wife Karen have twin teenage daughters
and live in their home outside Columbus. You can learn more about
