SENATOR BOB DOLE ENDORSES JOHN MCCALLUM FOR CONGRESS

Former Senate Majority Leader and Republican presidential nominee Bob Dole today announced his endorsement of conservative businessman John McCallum, a Republican candidate for the United States Congress in Georgia’s First Congressional District.

“Nearly twenty years ago, Elizabeth and I met a young couple on the campaign trail named John and Heather McCallum,” said Senator Dole. “Their support was instrumental throughout my presidential campaign, and we have been friends ever since.

“Every family, wage earner, and small business in America can do better – if only we have the right people and policies in Washington, D.C. John is committed to restoring freedom and opportunity in America, and replacing government reliance with individual responsibility. Having served in the U.S. Navy Reserve, he will stand up for our military and veterans, and fight tirelessly to protect the values that have made America great: God, family, honor, duty, and love of country.

“Looking back on my career in public service, I am reminded of the people, all along the way, who supported me. Now, I am proud to offer my support to John McCallum, so the nation we love can once again be strong and prosperous.”

Senator Dole, a recipient of the Bronze Star and two Purple Hearts, served in the U.S. Army during World War II. He later served as Chairman of the fundraising committee for the National World War II Memorial and as Co-Chair of the commission that closely examined the comprehensive system of medical care received by U.S. service members returning from Iraq and Afghanistan.

“I am incredibly grateful for Senator Dole’s endorsement,” said John McCallum. “Heather and I have learned so much from the Dole Family – not only about public service, but about living lives filled with purpose and integrity. Senator Dole’s unwavering love of country, support for our military and veterans, and bold, conservative leadership in Congress is a worthy example I will follow in the House of Representatives.”
