Wittman Statement upon Winning Reelection

Statement

Representative Rob Wittman (VA-1) released the following statement tonight after being reelected to represent the 1st District of Virginia in the U.S. House of Representatives:

"I am truly humbled that the people of America's 1st District have again elected me to represent them in the U.S. House of Representatives. I am eager to return to Washington next week and as part of the 114th Congress in January to serve my fellow Virginians and advocate for commonsense, responsible solutions to the challenges facing our nation.

"Our nation is at a critical juncture, and a number of important decisions await us in Washington. We must avert the impending cuts to our national defense, return to regular order with budgets and appropriations, and institute policies that facilitate job growth, innovation and economic stability. It is imperative that we act in the best interest of our nation.

"I'd like to thank my opponents for joining me in this substantive public policy debate, as well as for their record of service to our nation. America's best years are ahead of us. Let us all work together to ensure that our nation remains the greatest the world has ever known."
