Speaking about VietAmCham's today endorsement, Republican Candidate for Governor Bob McDonnell remarked earlier today:
“I am honored to have received the endorsement of this great job-creating organization. Virginia’s Vietnamese American community contributes greatly to our Commonwealth’s quality of life, culture and economy. Vietnamese American business owners know that we need a governor who is committed to keeping taxes low, and regulations and litigation at a minimum. That is exactly the kind of governor I will be. It is why Virginia’s major business organizations have endorsed our positive, forward-looking campaign. Over the next four years we are going to create new jobs and turn our economy around, and I look forward to working with the Vietnamese American National Chamber of Commerce in this effort.”
VietAmCham and our members sincerely wish Mr. McDonnell a successful election and look forward to work with his office after November 3rd.
We also invite you to visit Mr. McDonnell's campaign web site at www.BobMcDonnell.com.
