I’m supporting Gary DeLong for Congress because he is a fellow business owner who knows that in order to grow our economy the private sector must be the ones to create long term jobs.

I am pleased to support Gary DeLong for Congress. I know I can count on Gary to support my efforts in growing our economy, supporting our small and medium size businesses so they can create jobs for our citizens, and reigning in government spending.

Councilmember DeLong is the right person in the right place at the right time. Our country needs leaders like Gary who can work with people with differing views to build consensus on difficult issues. I’m confident he can bring his business skills and public service experience to improve the fiscal health of Washington.

Strong leadership is more essential than ever for our country and Gary DeLong has proven his ability to represent his constituents well.

I am confident he will bring his track record of balancing city budgets to Washington and ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent wisely.

I have witnessed Gary's actions as chairman of Long Beach's Budget Oversight Committee and I have no doubt he will maintain the same fiscally responsible approach in Washington as he does in Long Beach.

We're supporting Gary DeLong for the new 47th Congressional District because he has a proven track record of creating jobs and balancing the budget. We need more representatives like Gary in Washington, D.C. who understand how the economy works, will work to improve economic opportunities for all Americans, and are not career politicians.
