The Southern Tier's representative in Congress is throwing his support behind the Republican Party's decision to have Jim Jordan lead the House minority. Nick Langworthy issued a statement on Tuesday after GOP House members elected Jordan to the leadership post for the 120th Congress. Here is Langworthy's full statement:
The road back to a Republican majority starts with leadership that refuses to back down. My friend and colleague Jim Jordan has the backbone to take on tough battles, bring our members together, and put conservative principles into action. Putting his name forward today for Minority Leader was a privilege. Now it's time to get to work, roll up our sleeves like he's known for, and deliver for the American people.
