HUMASON BACKS EVANGELIDIS FOR HOUSE GOP LEADER

 

“I am proud to lend my voice, my energy, and my support to Representative Lewis Evangelidis as Republican Leader of the House of Representatives,” Humason said.  “I am optimistic about our opportunities to rebuild and renew the Republican caucus and the Republican Party in the Commonwealth.”

Don Humason, Westfield’s State Representative, and former Chief of Staff to Republican State Senator Mike Knapik, has been in the House of Representatives since 2003 and is the western-most Republican representative in Massachusetts.

“Lew and I came into the House together when we were elected back in 2002.  I have always admired him for his friendly, upbeat nature and his positive, optimistic outlook on things.  While I like Brad Jones very much and appreciate his six years of service as Leader, I think we in the Minority Party need a new messenger to deliver the new message of our Republican caucus.”

Humason pledged his support for Evangelidis and offered any help he could to take the caucus and the Party in a new direction.  He said he thinks the Party should begin recruiting candidates for 2010 now so that Republican legislators could begin to work with them regarding important policy issues and aspects of positive campaigning.  He said he also strongly believed that Republican legislators should draw sharp distinctions between themselves and the members of the Democrat super-majority to offer Bay state voters a clear choice.

“Quite simply one party government doesn’t work, and never has,” Humason said.  “As we’ve sadly seen recently, absolute power corrupts absolutely, and the Democrats have held absolute power in this state for too long much to the detriment of the citizens, residents, and taxpayers.”
