Ted Yoho Endorsed by Tea Party Express

The Tea Party Express endorsed U.S. Rep. Ted Yoho, R-Fla., for a third term on Thursday.

 Taylor Budowich, the executive director of the Tea Party Express, praised the North Florida Republican. 

“Washington, D.C. is full of career politicians that can talk the talk, but rarely do they ever walk the walk,” Budowich said. “Since we first endorsed Ted Yoho’s successful 2012 campaign, he has walked the walk and voters throughout Florida’s Third Congressional District should be proud. 

“As a member of the House Freedom caucus and a leader in the movement to change leadership, Ted Yoho has proven time and again that he is willing to put his constituents before party bosses,” Budowich added. “Over the past four years, he has fought against executive amnesty, against Washington’s reckless spending, and he even returned $500,000 of his office’s budget to the Treasury to do his part in deficit reduction.

“Our only regret with this endorsement is that we don’t have more Ted Yoho’s running for office," Budowich concluded. “We are proud to stand with Ted Yoho in 2016, as he looks to continue the people’s fight for a fiscally responsible government.”
