Please visit americaspeaking out.com. This will provide an innovative online forum for policy debate and idea generation. It gets us outside of Washington to talk about policy solutions at town hall meetings across the Nation. It allows us to discuss how our principles of freedom and smaller government could be applied to the priorities of the American people.

I really believe that the 112th Congress that begins in January could be a new beginning for our country.
