Towne for Congress Files with FEC for 2010 Lehigh Valley Congressional Bid!!!

Today the necessary forms to officially declare candidacy and candidate organization were signed and have been sent to the Federal Election Committee (FEC) and Internal Revenue Service (IRS) as I continue on my run for Congress in 2010 in the 15th congressional district.

As the current Congress continues to socialize major businesses and infringe upon personal liberties, the people of the 15th congressional district in the Lehigh Valley will have a choice on the 2010 ballot for LIBERTY instead of the continued oppression on economic and personal freedoms by Democrats and Republicans alike.

The campaign is centered on preserving personal liberties and returning to the rule of law as specified in the Constitution of the United States. I believe prosperity for our society can best be obtained by defending freedom and promoting peace, and the policies and path the current government is following will take our great country to economic and moral ruin.

Socialized medicine, multi-Trillion dollar deficits, multiple conventional "nation-building" wars, Cap and Trade, banker bailouts and government takeovers of private business need to end.  This campaign will not be 'politics as usual.'

• I am running as a private citizen, not with either major party - As I am highly critical of how both Republican and Democratic politicians have behaved over the past decade, I cannot associate myself as a candidate with either party. I am running as an independent private citizen under no political party. What I offer to the citizens of the 15th district is a true independent ear and voice. Whatever your age, gender, political party, or beliefs, we are all citizens and a better country for ourselves and our children's children is in our best interests. As I once learned, the very terms "conservative" and "liberal" are just forms of verbal warfare meant to divide us.

• I will focus on spreading my message, winning votes, and both educating residents as well as being educated BY them - The most important task is meeting people, and listening to their thoughts. The intent of my campaign is to become a Congressman who listens to ideas from both you and everyone to create the best solutions to our economic, social, political, and environmental problems. When elected, I will create an "Open Office" - an on-line forum where anyone can share his or her opinions with me, and makes me accountable to you. The website will serve as a demonstration to prove this Open Office idea is more than possible - it's already being done and your voice matters to me.

• Not a Career Politician - After I am elected, I would listen to your comments on my performance before running again. I harbor no intentions of becoming a "career politician." My aim is to serve as a temporary statesman and bring the voice of the people to government with a lot of energy. I am mindful of the sad truth behind "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely." As collateral for this assurance, if elected, I promise I will not enlist in the Congressional pension plan, which guarantees members up to 80% of their salary in annual pension. I believe this is fiscally irresponsible and too lucrative. The current salary paid by you, the taxpayer, for a seat in Congress is $174,000, which is well over three times our area's median household income, and the current incumbent is enrolled in this pension plan.
