I’m extremely proud of the clarity my Republican colleagues have expressed about what our priorities must be, and that we have listened to the American people.

He’s interviewed a president of the United States, and he’s ridden a hot-air balloon over the Ohio River. He’s become Kentucky’s longest-running legislative reporter. He’s led quite a life of accomplishment, and I wish him well in the next stage of his career.

Unless people like me show the American people that we’re willing to follow through on small or even symbolic things, we risk losing them on our broader efforts to cut spending and rein in government. That’s why today I am announcing that I will join the Republican Leadership in the House in support of a moratorium on earmarks in the 112th Congress
