Independence Caucus Endorsement

Independence Caucus Endorses Jim Trautz for 10th Congressional District of Virginia

Republican grassroots candidate in VA-10 runs on focused platform of fiscal responsibility.

STERLING, Va.—November 19, 2009— Jim Trautz, a Republican challenger for the Congressional seat in Virginia’s 10th district, has received the endorsement of the Independence Caucus, a bi-partisan group committed to taking back government from the "Big Money" special interest groups.

In stark contrast to the incumbent, Mr. Trautz is committed to ending out of control federal spending, ending the abuse and misuse of the Congressional earmark system; and ending Government Bailouts of private companies.

In addition, Mr. Trautz has shown he understands that the problems with our economy begin with:

1. A Government that will not stop spending money that it doesn’t have.
2. A Government that will not stop printing money it shouldn’t print.
3. A Government that will not stop mandating unconstitutional policies that create unintended and unwanted consequences to the economy.

In short, Mr. Trautz has demonstrated that he would serve as an honorable proponent of fiscal responsibility through adherence to Constitutional authority. Accordingly, the Independence Caucus asks all residents of Virginia’s 10th District to support Jim Trautz’s election.

About Independence Caucus
The Independence Caucus was started by volunteers who came together while working to elect Jason Chaffetz to Congress in 2008. Fed up with unsustainable spending in Washington, and total disregard for Constitutional limits on government authority, Independence Caucus founders realized that incumbents from both parties have been compromised by the “Big Money” special interest groups who fund their perpetual re-election campaigns, and have embarked on a mission to sniff out and expose the incumbents political money trails, and teach others across the country what they learned as un-paid volunteer members working on the Chaffetz campaign:  How to boot compromised politicians out of office and replace them with ones who will actually represent and listen to their constituents.  To see videos explaining exactly how the money flows from big money to lobbyists to politicians, visit http://icaucus.org/.
