Boehner Backs Sessions for NRCC

Release:

WASHINGTON, DC – House Republican Leader John Boehner (R-OH) today announced his support for Rep. Pete Sessions’ (R-TX) bid to serve as chairman of the National Republican Congressional Committee in the 111th Congress. Boehner released the following statement:

“Tom Cole has guided the NRCC through a difficult time for our party, and I’m sincerely grateful for his service to our team. But I believe having Pete Sessions at the helm of the NRCC in the next cycle will give House Republicans our best shot at rebuilding a majority coalition. Pete has the skills needed to recruit top-tier candidates and give them the support they need to challenge a Democratic Congress that has been bought and paid for by liberal special interests. We need Pete Sessions at the leadership table as the next chairman of the NRCC.”

Sessions is an excellent choice...
