It's Time for a Change - of Speakers
By Jim Bennett

There are two challengers to John Boehner, OH-08, to become the next Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives: Louis Gohmert TX-01 and Ted S. Yoho FL-03. Between the two challengers, Yoho was a co-sponsor of the FairTax(R), HR25, in the last Congress. You should urge your Congress Member to cast his or her vote for Congressman Ted S. Yoho, Fl-03.
Speaker Boehner has been a good tactician and brings experience, but time has come for a change. Particularly disappointing was the long life of Mr. Boehner's continuing budget resolution (with the exception of the budget for Homeland Security) that effectively threw away the most powerful control that the House of Representatives has. Mr. Boehner's timidity about a possible shutdown of the government and his avidness to get along also guide too much of his thinking.
Weighing all factors, it is time for a change. The election of 2014 gave your Congress Member a mandate that is too precious to squander. Demand that your Congress Member cast his or her vote for Ted S. Yoho, FL-03, as the next Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives.
Sincerely yours,
Jim Bennett
