Bauer Endorses Bucshon for Congress in IN-8

Dr. Bucshon will be a compassionate advocate for Indiana, said Bauer.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 18 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Former presidential candidate Gary L. Bauer this week endorsed Dr. Larry Bucshon for Congress in Indiana's 8th District, calling him a "committed conservative who will unapologetically defend the commonsense values of the American people."

Bauer, a veteran of the Reagan White House, is chairman of the Campaign for Working Families, one of America's leading conservative political action committees. CWF recently announced a target list of more than two dozen races in which conservatives are poised to take leadership in key offices.

"When Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama decided to dismantle the world's best medical care, Dr. Larry Bucshon knew we could do better and that is why he is running for Congress," said Bauer.  "As a successful heart surgeon, Dr. Bucshon understands our healthcare system needs reform.  As a hardworking taxpayer, Dr. Bucshon knows that government mandates, higher taxes and bloated federal bureaucracies are not the solution.  Dr. Larry Bucshon will be a strong advocate for patients and the people of Indiana's 8th District."

Bauer noted that Dr. Bucshon's willingness to fight for smaller government and less obtrusive government is a vital qualification for office in this economy.

"While the socialist experiment in Big Government is collapsing in Europe right before our eyes, the Obama Administration is growing the government, expanding entitlements, producing record deficits and adding trillions of dollars to the national debt," Bauer said. "Nancy Pelosi and the liberal Democrats have controlled the House of Representatives for four years.  In that time, government spending has skyrocketed, unemployment is up and the American people are losing hope. It's time to bring real change to Washington, D.C. by electing Dr. Larry Bucshon to Congress."

The Campaign for Working Families (CWF) exists for the express purpose of supporting candidates who will proudly promote conservative values, such as the defense of the traditional family, the sanctity of human life and the promotion of individual liberty and free enterprise.
