American Family Assn. PAC Endorses Wesco

Leading Pro-Family Group Endorses Timothy Wesco for State Representative!

(Indianapolis, IN) - The American Family Association of Indiana PAC announced that it has endorsed Timothy Wesco for State Representative in House District 21.

The long economic recession and the historic issues coming from Washington in recent months seem to have awakened Hoosier voters all across Indiana. With just one week left before the May 4th primary, many analysts and political observers are wondering what outcomes this increased voter interest might produce.

“One of the impacts of this politically active year is that a whole new host of candidates have stepped up to run for office. Timothy Wesco is one of the exciting new faces on the political scene in Indiana. We are very proud to stand with Tim in his run for State Representative. We believe Timothy Wesco has put together an outstanding campaign and has a bright future in Hoosier politics,” said Micah Clark, President of AFA of Indiana PAC.

“Supporting Timothy Wesco in the May 4th Primary and the November election can ensure that House District 21 maintains the pro-family and pro-life representation it has come to expect with State Representative Jackie Walorski now running for US Congress,” said Micah Clark, AFA of Indiana PAC President.

The AFA of Indiana Political Action Committee was formed in March 2006 for the purpose of educating voters about candidates who embrace traditional values and issues that impact families, churches and communities.

Indiana Family Action PAC endorses Wesco

Indiana Family Action PAC endorses Timothy Wesco

Indiana Family Action PAC today announced their endorsement of Republican candidate for House District 21, Timothy Wesco.

“Tim is a true conservative champion who shares our traditional Hoosier values,” IFA PAC Executive Director Ryan McCann said. “The freedoms we cherish are under attack now more than ever. That’s why we need strong conservative leaders like Tim Wesco fighting for us every day at the Indiana Statehouse. I’ve worked with Jackie Walorski for years down in the Indiana House of Representatives on pro-family, pro-life, pro-marriage issues and know what a fighter she is for conservative values. We need an outstanding conservative like Tim Wesco to follow in her footsteps.”

Timothy Wesco has been an outspoken advocate for traditional marriage and the lives of the unborn during his campaign for the Republican nomination for House District 21. With long-time liberal activist groups like the ACLU, Planned Parenthood, Indiana Equality and others attempting to socially engineer a traditionally family-friendly state into their image, it is vital that we support pro-family statesmen like Timothy Wesco.

Indiana Family Action PAC is the sister organization of Indiana Family Action and Indiana Family Institute. Indiana Family Institute is the state affiliate of Focus on the Family. Indiana Family Action PAC is committed to helping principled state leaders dedicated to pro-family values become elected public servants.
