| In the history of our scorecard, no Senator has opposed unnecessary spending and held the line against tax increases more often than Damon Thayer... his commitment to government transparency, low taxes and controlled spending is unmatched in the Senate... His scorecard results are a success, and characterizing them any other way is a distortion of a fine record. ." 5/11/12 |
U.S. Senator Rand Paul(R-KY): "One of the most conservative, if not the most conservative member of the state Senate." 8/8/11
I want to thank these groups and individuals for their support, and now ask for yours in the voting booth on Tuesday.
