Rebecca Negron Unveils Support from Local GOP Leaders

Martin County School Board member Rebecca Negron unveiled the support of several Republican leaders as she continues her bid for the congressional seat held by U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy, D-Fla., who is running for the U.S. Senate. 

Negron announced on Tuesday that former Martin County Republican Executive Committee (REC) Chairwomen Susan Auld, Kate Boland and Sherry Pylmale, former Martin County REC Chairman Charlie Kane and GOP activists Diane McKechnie and Michael Hofstee were backing her campaign.  
 
“I am humbled by the support from our local Republican leaders,” said Negron. “Our community is very important to me and I intend to ensure our local projects, such as the Indian River Lagoon, can continue to support our region's economy by bringing national attention to the necessity of improving water quality and quantity. In addition, we must deliver a message to Washington that our schools must be kept out of the hands of the federal government and we must exercise better fiscal responsibility, keeping hard-earned dollars in our families’ pockets while reducing government waste. I look forward to discussing these issues on the campaign trail and to the opportunity of serving our local communities in Congress.”
