Chairman Sessions Statement on the NV-2 Special Election

Washington, DC – National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Pete Sessions (R-TX) released the following statement regarding Republican Mark Amodei’s victory in the special election in Nevada’s 2nd Congressional District:

“I congratulate Mark Amodei on his election victory as Nevadans voted to send a strong Republican to Congress who will fight for more jobs and less government. Mark ran a hard-fought campaign based on his commitment to cut deficit spending, taxes and regulations to free Nevada small businesses to grow and hire more workers.

“Nevadans have handed an unpopular President Obama and his party yet another rejection message for making a bad economy worse. Democrats just saw their 2012 playbook fall apart as Nevada voters refused to buy Democrats’ Medicare scare tactics and misinformation campaigns. This election sends Democrats another warning that Democrats up and down the ballot next year cannot escape accountability for their failed economic policies.”
