January 28, 2008: Congressman Rob Wittman's Statement on President Bush's State of the Union Address

(Washington D.C.) - Rob Wittman released the following statement on President Bush's final State of the Union address:

"I was pleased to join my fellow legislators tonight to hear directly from the President his agenda for the coming year. The President laid out a number of thoughtful initiatives aimed at revitalizing our slowing economy, ending wasteful government spending, securing our borders and protecting our freedoms at home and abroad. I was encouraged to hear that he is committed to tax relief for American families and that he will do his part to end the gluttony of earmarks in the appropriations process. His bi-partisan tone is much needed at this time, and I look forward to working with my Democrat colleagues in the coming year to come up with fair and transparent solutions to the challenges we face as a nation."
