Lead Summary

-
Congressman Mike Turner has filed signatures in support of his reelection bid to Congress. Turner, who was first elected in 2002, and has also served as the Mayor of Dayton, has a history of leadership in working on behalf of the community and Ohio.
In Congress, Turner has stood against the tide of out of control spending in Washington and has become known as a leader on the issue of national defense. Turner is running for office in the now numbered 10th Congressional District.
“As the only Member of Congress from southwest Ohio to stand against increasing the debt, I will continue to deliver a message of fiscal discipline to Washington. This election presents an opportunity to change the path of reckless spending which has become business as usual in Congress. I am proud to have said no to increasing the federal debt which will be repaid for generations to come,” said Turner.
At stake in the 2012 election is the future of our nation’s finances, and our national defense. While some have voted to cripple our national security structure and pay for additional deficit spending via a debt limit increase, Turner has said “no.”
“Six to eight thousand Ohioans are set to lose their jobs because some in Congress thought it was appropriate to play chicken with our national security. After serving multiple deployments, our servicemembers shouldn’t now have to worry about their futures because some Members wanted to pay for a debt limit increase,” added Turner.[[In-content Ad]]
