South Bend, IN - When Jackie Walorski files her 4^th quarter finance report with the Federal Election Commission later today, it will show that she raised more than $155,000 from October to December, and she has more than $435,000 cash on hand.

“As support continues to grow for our campaign, it shows that Hoosier families want to take our country in a new direction,” said Walorski. “They want a representative in Congress who will stand up to the big spenders in Washington, balance our budget, and fight for policies that will allow our economy to grow. 

Since entering the race for Congress, Walorski has raised nearly $590,000, with more than 80% of her total coming from the more than 1,200 individuals who have contributed to her campaign.

WALORSKI FILES FOR CONGRESS

IT’S OFFICIAL: WALORSKI FILES BID FOR CONGRESS

(Indianapolis, IN) Yesterday, former State Representative Jackie Walorski filed her candidacy to represent Indiana’s 2nd District in the United States Congress with the Indiana Secretary of State.

“Our country is heading in the wrong direction, said Walorski. “I am running for Congress to get our economy back on track so businesses can create jobs, and to get government spending under control- balancing the budget.”

In the legislature, Jackie developed a reputation as a solid conservative leader in the fight for lower taxes and against wasteful government spending.  Now Jackie is working to take her conservative philosophy to the United States Congress.

“In the State House, I stood up to the big spenders to cut waste and balanced the budget without raising taxes,” continued Walorski. “In Congress, I will take that same approach to get our country working again.”       

Jackie Walorski is a native Hoosier, born and raised in South Bend, Indiana.  Jackie attended Riley High School in South Bend and graduated with a BA from Taylor University, also in Indiana.   She started her career as a reporter. Later she worked as a Development Director to raise funds for local colleges and universities. Shortly after marrying her husband Dean, a Mishawaka school teacher, Jackie and Dean moved to Romania.  While in Romania, they founded their own agency and local foundation to help provide much-needed medical supplies to the country’s impoverished children.

After returning home, Jackie was elected to her first of three terms in the Indiana House of Representatives in 2004. She rose quickly to leadership becoming the Assistant Floor Leader for the Republican Caucus.

Thank you!!

Thank you very much to all of our friends who helped us successfully reach our goal at the end of the year! We not only reached that goal but we surpassed it because you and many others really made it happen. 

I am looking forward to a GREAT 2012 where we bring grass roots, common sense solutions to a badly, out of touch, Washington, DC.  The days of massive debt, bloated budgets and record deficits will be over when we return the 2nd District Congessional to you, the taxpayers.

I am grateful and humbled by the outpouring of support.  Dean and I wish you a very Happy New Year and are looking forward to seeing you soon!

Sincerely,

Jackie Walorski

Eagle Forum Endorses Jackie Walorski in Indiana’s Congressional District

Washington, D.C. – Eagle Forum PAC, a conservative public policy organization founded by Phyllis Schlafly is proud to endorse Jackie Walorski in the race to represent Indiana’s Second Congressional District. 

“Jackie is exactly the kind of leader we need in Washington,” said Schlafly.  “She is a fierce defender of life with a proven record as an effective conservative leader.”

“As a state legislator, she fought liberal policies, Planned Parenthood, harmful state mandates, tax increases, and supported measures that created jobs and reduced budget deficits in Indiana, even when it required her to take stands against her own party.” Schlafly noted.

“Jackie earned an Eagle Award during her time in the Indiana State Legislature for her tireless and strategic pro-family leadership,” Schlafly explained. “Now, more than ever, we need Members of Congress who don’t just vote well, but will roll up their sleeves and fight to protect life and marriage and to cut federal spending.” 

Eagle Forum PAC supports candidates who are committed to a conservative philosophy of limited government, national sovereignty and traditional values.
