WASHINGTON, Jan. 19 /
Christian Newswire/ -- U.S. Congressman Mike Pence, chairman of the House Republican Conference, issued the following statement today in response to the Massachusetts special election:
"While Scott Brown deserves sincere congratulations on his election to the United States Senate, this election is about more than the success of one man. The American people have spoken.
“As they did in recent elections in Virginia and New Jersey, the American people are telling Washington, DC enough is enough. In this special election in Massachusetts they have sent a deafening message to the political class.
“After years of borrowing, spending, bailouts and government takeovers, the American people are demanding that this administration and this Democratic Congress come to its senses, end their fiscal recklessness and work to create jobs.
"Mr. President, heed the voice of the American people, scrap this plan for a government takeover of health care and let's work together to put our fiscal house in order and pass legislation that will put Americans back to work. "
