Kasich for America Announces Co-Chairs in the State of Washington

Today Kasich for America announced Ohio Governor John Kasich’s co-chairs in Washington.
 
“We’ve assembled a solid team in Washington to support Governor Kasich,” said Rob McKenna, former attorney general of Washington and a former candidate for governor. “Governor Kasich is a proven leader with a strong record of actually balancing budgets, bringing fiscal sanity to government and focusing on what matters most to the America people— jobs and the economy. Further, he is the only candidate who can defeat Hillary Clinton in the fall. A vote for either Ted Cruz or Donald Trump in May is effectively a vote for Clinton in November.”

Said Kasich, “I appreciate the support from my new co-chairs in Washington. They are all great and remarkable public servants who have dedicated their lives to be voices for the people in the state of Washington. With their help, we will continue to focus on my positive message of bringing fiscal sanity and common-sense solutions to DC for a more accountable, less costly government.”

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 him at www.JohnKasich.com
