Bob Goodlatte to be special guest at SWAC-GOP Breakfast this Saturday

We are excited to be joined by Congressman Bob Goodlatte (R - Va 6th District) this Saturday for our SWAC-GOP Breakfast, that monthly gathering of area Republicans from Staunton, Waynesboro, and Augusta County. Delegate Ben Cline (R- 24th House District) has said he will also join us; all other Republican elected officials in the area have been invited.

This is the kick-off to our election season with the official Labor Day campaign kick-off and the Republican National Convention just three weeks away.

Congressman Goodlatte has served the citizens of the 6th Congressional District for 10 years. He has been working for the people of this area since 1993 and has a strong record of conservative accomplishments. Congressman Goodlatte, in addition to just submitting a bill to increase VA's offshore drilling rights, is unwavering when it comes to the issues. He believes in promoting fiscal responsibility, protecting our national security, maintaining our resolve to win the war in Iraq and Afghanistan, and addressing the illegal immigration problem.

Congressman Goodlatte has an impressive resume. Graduating from Washington and Lee University, he went on to found his own law firm in Roanoke, and has been in public service throughout his life. Currently he represents VA's 6th District.

Congressman Goodlatte has served as Chairman of the House Agriculture Committee since 2003, and now serves as the Ranking Member on the House Agriculture Committee. He also serves as Chairman of the House Republican High Technology Working Group; Co-Chair of the Congressional Internet Caucus; and is a member of the Republican Policy Committee.

The Congressman and his wife, Maryellen, have been married for 33 years, live in Roanoke, and have two children, Jennifer and Rob.

Be sure to join us on August 9 to hear from Congressman Bob Goodlatte!
