Washington, DC – Below is a statement from Timothy Head, Executive Director of the Faith & Freedom Coalition, on today’s re-election of Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) as Speaker of the United States House of Representatives.
“The choice by House Republicans to unanimously deliver another term to Rep. Paul Ryan as Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives is an important decision for the future of our country and a decision for which conservatives of all stripes should be excited. Speaker Ryan is a man of faith who has served this nation admirably, with a strong record of supporting pro-life, pro-family, pro-economic growth, and fiscal responsibility, Speaker Ryan serves as a beacon for social and fiscal conservatives alike across the nation. Citizens of faith look forward to working alongside President-Elect Trump, Vice-President Elect Pence, Leader McConnell, and Speaker Ryan as they lead our country in a new direction, where the principles of strong families, strong national defense, protecting the dignity of life and marriage, lower taxes, and fiscal responsibility, become public policy.
