New Liberty Candidate, Justin Amash, Files for Congress in Michigan (CD-3)

[enrique]

My friend and state representative, Justin Amash, announced this afternoon his intention to unseat our 16 year incumbent Republican congressman, Vern Ehlers. Amash will be running in the third congressional district. He is an unabashed supporter of free markets, strictly limited intervention, and individual liberty. I have watched him for 2 years in the Michigan House of Representatives and he has not had a single vote to which I disagreed with. I've never been this excited about a libertarian Republican running for office since the '08 Ron Paul campaign!

Be sure to visit his website that was just launched today. You can read a little more about him and see his speech to the Tea Party last April here.

Justin probably has one of our best legitimate shots at getting someone to help out Ron Paul in the House of Representatives.

The site is similar to Schiff's but much better. Peter needs to get his site updated!
