I am writing in support of Vernon Parker for U.S. Congress in Arizona District 3. I have had the pleasure of knowing Vernon Parker for the past 2 1/2 years. I have been impressed with the way he has cut the Town of Paradise Valley budget 29 percent while delivering the same level of service to the town residents. Vernon has built consensus both within the town and the Town Council on the issues that have come up during his tenure as mayor. Vernon has demonstrated great personal integrity, while proving he is a fiscal conservative not afraid of standing up to special interest groups. Vernon has a plan to secure and control our borders, revise health care legislation and get America back to work. Please join me in voting for Vernon Parker in the upcoming Republican primary.

A former U.S. attorney, who represented Vernon Parker before the Small Business Administration, set the record straight for Ben Quayle concerning accusations he made about Vernon’s dealings with the SBA. He asked the campaign to cease and desist any further spreading of false information through any media outlet. It appears Quayle will do anything to keep Vernon from winning the congressional race!
