WASHINGTON – National Republican Congressional Committee Chairman Greg Walden issued the following statement on Mike Simpson’s Republican primary victory in Idaho’s 2nd Congressional District.

“No one works harder for the people and values of Idaho than Mike Simpson.  He’s a talented, common-sense, conservative legislator who time after time gets real results.  Those of us in the rural West rely on Mike when it comes to dealing with public lands issues, private property rights and our water rights.  He’s served honorably and effectively and once again, Idaho voters have recognized the importance of having him represent them in Congress.

“I congratulate Mike Simpson on his primary victory and look forward to working with him in Congress in the years to come.”
