In response to news that that home sales have fallen to their lowest level in 15 years, Tim Edson, Campaign Manager for Keith Fimian released this statement:
"Congressman Connolly has been telling us how wonderful his economic policies are and how his trillions in reckless spending is the cure to all our economic woes, from the job market to the housing market," Edson said. "Today's news that existing home sales fell 27.2 percent in July is a painful sign that Gerry Connolly has been pedaling empty rhetoric and his policies are making matters worse, not better."
"Desperate to win re-election, Congressman Connolly will tell voters anything he believes will better his chances. His happy talk and blame others campaign are a career politician's response, not a solution," Edson said. "But this isn't a political game. People are hurting and Congressman Connolly is badly out-of-touch. Homeowners in the 11th District have already seen their home values tumble and the prospect of even greater decline is very real if we don't put a stop to the failed, job destroying economic policies of Gerry Connolly."
"During his time on the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors, Connolly soaked homeowners in property taxes to feed his reckless spending," Edson said. "In Congress, his economic policies have worsened the economy and created the grim conditions necessary for another dramatic decline in home values."

Keith Fimian made the following statement today in response to Congressman Gerry Connolly’s recent statement to Politico that “you try to highlight that which you know will put your best foot forward” in reference to his efforts to hide his unwavering support for Speaker Pelosi's agenda:
“Congressman Connolly has rubber stamped Speaker Pelosi’s failed agenda of bigger government, trillions in new spending, and hundreds of billions in job destroying taxes 97 percent of the time,” Fimian said. “As could have been predicted from a career politician like Gerry Connolly, he is running from his record and desperately reinventing himself as something he is not weeks before an election in hopes of fooling voters into sending him back to Congress.”
“Despite his campaign trail rhetoric, Congressman Connolly has been unwavering in his support for Speaker Pelosi and the failed, reckless agenda of this Congress,” Fimian said. “From the failed $862 billion stimulus to the trillion dollar government healthcare takeover to his vote for job destroying cap-and-trade, Connolly has voted with Democrat party bosses and against his constituents time after time.
“I really don’t know what 11th District voters should find more troubling: the fact that Gerry Connolly has taken so many votes against their interests, or the fact that he arrogantly brags to the press about his efforts to hide from his record and deceive his own constituents into sending him back to Congress,” Fimian said.

Unlike Congressman Connolly, Keith will tell the voters where he stands and hold town hall meetings open to the public. Keith won't hide from his constituents.

Keith responds to today’s economic news that first-time jobless claims rose above 500,000 last week, the highest level since November of 2009:
“With every passing week more Americans find themselves jobless and these layoffs can be traced directly to Congressman Connolly and the failed economic policies of Congress,” Fimian said. “Congressman Connolly and the rest of the big spending career politicians have absolutely no idea how jobs are created or how the economy grows.”
“The best thing Congress could have done was create conditions where small businesses can confidently invest and hire,” Fimian said. “Instead, they have done the exact opposite, creating an environment hostile to business and job creation. Small businesses are afraid to hire with the prospect of massive tax increases, burdensome regulations, and skyrocketing energy costs at the center of Congressman Connolly’s agenda.”

Join Governor Bob McDonnell, Virginia’s 71st Governor, and Keith Fimian for an evening reception. This special reception will be held in Herndon, VA on Wednesday August 25 starting at 5:30. It would be an honor if you could join Keith and Bob!
More than 50 million retired Americans, widows and those with disabilities depend on Social Security. It is essential that we protect Social Security and the benefits promised to those who depend on it. The solvency of Social Security is partly a demographic problem and partly a spending problem.
Click here to take a look at actions we must take to stop this growing problem.

Today, Keith called on Congressman Gerry Connolly to oppose the controversial mosque planned near the World Trade Center site in New York City:
“The debate about building a mosque near the World Trade Center site isn’t a question of law or religious freedom. It’s simply a question of respect and compassion for the victims of the World Trade Center attacks and their families,” Fimian said. “I urge Congressman Connolly to state his opposition to the proposed mosque near the World Trade Center site and encourage President Obama to do the same.
With news that new jobless claims surged to 484,000 last week, Keith Fimian said, “News of surging jobless claims is just another indication that the economic policies of Gerry Connolly and the rest of the big spending career politicians in Congress are making matters worse, not better,” Fimian said. “Only a liberal big spender like Gerry Connolly could possibly think wasteful government spending, and taxing and regulating every aspect of the economy will spur job creation and economic growth.”
