September 17, 2010: Wittman Marks Constitution Day

Washington, DC – Congressman Rob Wittman (VA-1) today marked Constitution Day, issuing the following statement:

“Today we honor our nation’s founding document, the United States Constitution. Two hundred twenty-three years ago, the 39 delegates of the Constitutional Convention approved the four-page document that established the government of our great country.  It is what made our Country great, and is what will sustain us if we will adhere to its principles of limited government, states' rights, and balance of power. Our country must continue to honor the solid foundation created by this document, the greatest governing document ever written. Today, we honor those whose ideals of freedom continue to live today with “We, the People.”


Congressman Rob Wittman represents the First District of Virginia. He serves on the Natural Resources Committee and the Armed Services Committee where he is the Ranking Member of the Oversight and Investigations Subcommittee.
