Fleischmann’s Experience Needed In Washington - And Response

  • Thursday, October 30, 2014

There comes a point when individuals in leadership positions need more than just knowledge about legislation and policy— they need experience. The 3rd District needs a representative who has already dealt with the pressures, as well as adeptly handled the influence, that comes along with serving in public office. Congressman Fleischmann has supported and pushed many key pieces of legislation through the House, some of which have contributed to a significant reduction in government spending and an increase in job growth.

Congressman Fleischmann has also served honorably on many committees essential to American prosperity and security, such as the Energy and Water Development, Homeland Security and Labor, Health and Human Services Committees. Chuck already knows what it takes to be productive in office. He is the best candidate for the job because he has head knowledge coupled with experience, enhancing his effectiveness and consequently our own welfare as a state and a nation.

More leaders need what Congressman Fleischmann has: solid values and the experience needed to get things done in Washington. I believe in his ability to lead and to serve the interests of Tennesseans and Americans at large. Please join with me in voting for Chuck Fleischmann.?

I for one will not be voting for Congressman Fleischmann.  Yes, he has experience.  And yes, I normally vote Republican.  But he does not have the experience I want representing me.  He has consistently voted right down the party line.  I want someone to represent the district and I, not just their political party because they want to keep in the good graces of others.  

Chuck Fleischman is your typical career politician.  He will do what it takes to stay in office.  And not do what is always best for the for the people he is supposed to represent. 

Please join me in voting for a candidate that has our best interests in mind, Dr. Mary Headrick.
