    McIntyre Wins “True Blue” Award For Consistent Support of Family

    Washington, D.C. – U.S. Congressman Mike McIntyre has been recognized as a “True Blue” Member of Congress by the Family Research Council and Focus on the Family Action for his unwavering commitment to the family.

              The award honors Members of Congress who have exhibited extraordinary leadership and commitment to the defense of family, faith, and freedom according to FRC Action’s new scorecard covering House and Senate votes during the 1st session of the 110th Congress.  Recipients of the award voted consistently for pro-life and pro-family issues.

              Representative McIntyre had a 100% rating with these issues.

              “The Members of the 100th Congress who received this award have been consistent, stalwart allies of American families,” said FRC Action President Tony Perkins.  “These Members are to be commended for supporting public policy that values human life, protects our religious liberties, and upholds the institutions of marriage and the family.”

              Perkins continued, “I applaud these Members for defending pro-family and pro-life policies that have been under attack this past year.  Values voters should be encouraged by these Members who have shown a commitment to protecting and strengthening the family.

              Representative McIntyre is co-chairman of both a faith and values task force and a task force on fatherhood.
