IDAHO STATE SENATOR MARV HAGEDORN THINKS JOHN KASICH SHOULD BE THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

 

Today, Idaho State Senator Marv Hagedorn endorsed John Kasich for President. Hagedorn will serve as the Co-Chair for Governor Kasich's Idaho campaign.

 

"As a small businessman and veteran I appreciate Governor Kasich's work to balance our nation's budget and create a strong national defense. Not only has John Kasich successfully turned around Ohio, but he is also the chief architect of the last time America balanced it's budget. We know that Governor Kasich has the ability to turn our Country around just like he did Ohio, AND he has the record to prove it!”

 

Hagedorn is in his second term as a State Senator.  He previously served three terms in the Idaho House of Representatives. He retired from the Navy after serving 20 years on active duty and has worked in the private sector from blue collar jobs to being CEO of his own business in the 21 years since.  He co-founded and now oversees the operation of the Wyakin Warrior Foundation helping our wounded warriors transition back into the private sector.

 

"Senator Hagedorn knows the importance of balancing the budget and common-sense conservatism.  I'm proud to have him help lead our team in Idaho," Governor Kasich said.

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 300,000 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.
