On Monday, June 11, 2012, Gineen Bresso, Republican candidate for U.S. Congress released the following statement:

“As of Friday, June 8, I have submitted the required documentation and have officially filed my candidacy for the Republican nomination for U.S. Congress against Debbie Wasserman-Schultz in CD-23. I want to thank each and every one of you for your help and support the last few months.  The outpouring of support that I have received from people in the district is a testament to the viability of the solutions I propose to reduce unemployment, cut the deficit and create economic growth right here in south Florida. But there is much work to be done.

“Travelling around Broward and Miami-Dade County, from Weston and Southwest Ranches, to Hollywood and Miami Beach, I have had the privilege of hearing from so many of you who are frustrated, as I am, with a broken system of government in Washington, D.C. This election marks an opportunity for America to turn a new corner and restore the principles of our founding fathers. By working together, I am committed to being a true, full-time Representative of the people of CD-23 and with your help and support, we can usher in a new era of fresh, fiscally responsible leadership.”

Gineen Bresso Statement on Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s Attack on Governor Jeb Bush

Saturday, June 2nd, 2012

Gineen Bresso, candidate for Congress in Florida’s 23rd District, released the following statement on Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s attack on Governor Jeb Bush.

“I am shocked, yet not that surprised, that on the same day that the Labor Department reported that unemployment in the U.S. rose to 8.2%, Florida Congresswoman and DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman-Schultz would launch a hollow attack on former Florida Governor Jeb Bush for his successful initiative in recruiting Scripps Research Institute to Florida. Her attack on one of Florida’s most accomplished Governors, for recruiting new businesses and bringing high-tech industry and jobs to south Florida, illustrates just how out of touch Wasserman-Schultz truly is when it comes to the issues facing Floridians. Rather than attacking a prominent former Governor, her constituents would probably be better served if she utilized her position as a Congresswoman to help create jobs and economic growth.”
