State Rep. Ed Lindsey will not resign from Hpuse

Via email:

Friends,

In light of Sen. Barry Loudermilk’s resignation today, many have asked if I will follow suit.

The answer is simple: No.

As a young man, my Dad always told me that, “the best way to get a job is to do well at the job you have.”

Ten months ago, I asked my constituents in House District 54 to send me back to the Georgia General Assembly to fight for conservative principles and reform. Sticking taxpayers with the enormous cost of a special election for the sake of advancing my political career is an example of the kind of self centered politics that dominate Washington today. It will only stop when conservative leaders actually lead.

Next year, I am asking the people of Georgia’s 11th Congressional District to send me to our nation’s capitol to fight for real conservative reform.

In keeping with my Dad’s wisdom, I will prove that I am the strongest candidate for Congress by finishing the job I was elected to do under the Gold Dome. On issues such as expanding school choice, preserving our 2nd Amendment rights, reforming the tax code with the FairTax, and protecting the sanctity of life, you can expect me to always do what is best for the taxpayers and for our country.

After all, isn’t that what public service is all about?

I ask you to stand with me for real conservative reform and real conservative leadership. Show your support by sending a quick $10 contribution today!

Your generous donation will go a long way to spreading the word about my candidacy throughout the 11th District.

Thank you for the opportunity to serve!

Sincerely,

State Representative Edward Lindsey
Conservative for Congress
