Press Releases

WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele released the following statement today:

“Congratulations to John Boehner on becoming the sixty-first Speaker of the United States House of Representatives as well as the entire Republican Leadership of the 112^th Congress. I would also like to welcome the 87 new Republican Congressmen and the 13 new Republican Senators whose historic election will place a check on the reckless agenda put forth by Congressional Democrats and President Obama and ensure that the voice of the American people no longer goes unheard.  Now the heavy lifting begins to reverse the failures of the past two years and allow the American people to reclaim the reins of their government through principled, fiscally responsible leadership in Washington, DC.”
