Republicans need Lamborn on team in nation’s capitol

As House Republican Leader, I have been privileged to work with Rep. Doug Lamborn during his freshman term in Congress.

Lamborn built a reputation as a rocksolid conservative leader throughout his 12 years of service in the Colorado House and Senate. Now in Congress, on issue after issue, I’ve been impressed with his hard work, commitment to reform and principled stand on the issues that matter.

He’s been at the forefront of the fight against illegal immigration, fighting efforts to gut funding for the border fence and ensuring that federal benefits are available only to American citizens.

Lamborn has co-sponsored the American Energy Act (H.R. 6566) which will dramatically increase our energy supply and lower the price of gas at the pump.

Major business organizations such as the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, National Federation of Independent Business, and the Colorado Springs Chamber of Commerce recognize and endorse Lamborn.

Congress needs more members who will not waver when difficult votes come to the floor. Doug Lamborn is someone I can count on to always stand firm. Please vote to re-elect him. Colorado and the nation need his conservative leadership in Congress.

Rep. John Boehner, House Republican Leader Washington, D.C.

Again, for those who still have doubts about Lamborn’s leadership, here is another Republican leader who recognizes Lamborn’s leadership in Congress.
