Campaign Against Nancy Pelosi Gaining Momentum

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - Dana Walsh, Republican candidate for Congress in California's 8th Congressional District, proudly announced that she has received the endorsement of third term San Francisco Republican Committee member, Janet Campbell.  

"Like many of Dana's supporters, I am a strong proponent of fiscal integrity at all levels of government. Dana has also earned my support for her position in upholding the Constitution and recalling a repeal of the Health Care Bill. Her stances are clear and unwavering," said Campbell.

Janet Campbell is a member of the San Francisco Republican Party County Central Committee, in San Francisco's Assembly District 12, and the former Vice-Chair of Events. In addition to her professional work, she helps and with helping governmental agencies and private companies to be able to compete for public works contracts in order to curb waste, fraud and abuse in public works contracts. Previously, she has served as a Board Member for the American Institute of Architects in the state of Georgia. She has also spoken for the Geary Street Merchant's Association on a number of occasions when dealing with the parking changes affecting retail that are planned along that Boulevard.
 
Last week, Walsh announced that not only had she won the endorsement of Commissioner Donald Casper and past Chairman of the San Francisco Republican Party Kirk Miller, but she also has raised over $1 million in her effort to defeat Speaker Pelosi.

On another campaign matter, Walsh is showing that she is the true leader in this race. Her Republican Primary opponent has been forced to follow her lead on one of the most important issues in this race. In response to Walsh, he has signed the Americans for Tax Reform "No New Taxes" pledge. Now Walsh is waiting to see if he will once again follow her lead by signing Citizens Against Government Waste's "No Pork Pledge." The pledge specifies that Walsh will not request any pork barrel earmarks that meet the following criteria - requested by only one chamber of Congress, not specifically authorized, not competitively awarded, not requested by the President, greatly exceeds the President's budget request or the previous year's funding, not the subject of Congressional hearings, or serves only a local or special interest.
