2010 ENDORSED CANDIDATES

manionVets for Freedom is proud to announce its support of Tom Manion for United States Congress in the 8th District of Pennsylvania. Tom is the truest of American patriots, having proudly served his country in the United States Marine Corps for 30 years, earning the rank of Colonel, and leading a life as a successful business executive.  Tom and his wife Janet gave the ultimate sacrifice to their country - their son - who fought and died in Iraq, protecting the very freedoms that have called Tom to serve again. Vets for Freedom is honored to stand by Tom's side as he prepares to continue his life of public service in the United States Congress.

"As a fellow veteran, I am truly humbled to speak on behalf of over 25,000 members of Vets for Freedom in offering our strong endorsement of Tom Manion for United States Congress," said Vets for Freedom Chairman, Pete Hegseth. "More than most Americans, Tom understands the tremendous sacrifice required of our Armed Forces, and their families, in our global efforts against Islamic extremism. Our country needs more people like Tom in Washington."

Hegseth continued, "As the brave men and women who wear our nation's uniform continue to serve in harm's way, it is important that politics end at the water's edge, and that we have elected officials in Washington who understand and appreciate the sacrifices they make and why they make them. Tom Manion is a true American hero and patriot, and I am proud to offer the support of Vets for Freedom."
