Powell: What I will do and won't do in Washington

on Friday, 02 November 2012 16:32.

There's no question that Eric Cantor and I have very different views of representing the 7th District. With all the misinformation that Cantor's millions have put out there about me, I think the voters deserve to know in plain and simple language what I will and won't do if they send me to Washington.

(1) I will do everything in my power to end the insanity of deficit spending and get to work on paying off the national debt. Unlike Cantor, who voted this year for a budget that increased the deficit and added $3 trillion to the national debt, I will vote for no budget that increases the deficit. I will also vote for no budget that increases taxes on the middle class or small business. Where will the money come from? Simple. One, take a scalpel to the wasteful spending that we all know exists, and two, if you are a big multi-national corporation that sends American jobs overseas and pays no taxes, look out.

(2) I will do everything in my power to stop the flow of jobs, both manufacturing and high tech, from America to foreign nations. Cantor has sat idly as 2.8 million American jobs have been relegated to the slave labor market in China. Cantor's multi-national corporate sugar daddies are benefitting from his lack of action, not the 7th District.

Powell Releases New Television Ad Focusing on Eric Cantor's Extremist Anti-Women Agenda

on Tuesday, 30 October 2012 16:10.

Attacks Cantor for his Silence on Akin and Mourdock

The Wayne Powell for Congress campaign today released a new television ad which highlights Majority Leader Eric Cantor's extremist positions on women's reproductive health. It will be aired district-wide on multiple outlets.

The ad features a cut-out of Cantor in a doctor's office with a patient and her doctor.

"Cantor has either voted for or co-sponsored 32 pieces of extremist anti-women legislation with Congressman Todd Akin," said Powell Campaign Manager Christian Rickers.

Among the 32 anti-women bills Cantor championed with Akin include the "Forced Ultrasound" legislation and the introduction of the "Forcible Rape" bill which would have minimized the definition of "rape".  Akin became the focus of national attention this summer and was chastised by most prominent Republicans when he said that a woman couldn't become pregnant if she was "forcibly raped".

"Cantor is clearly out of step with the women of the 7th District," said Wayne Powell. "Unbelievably, Cantor has even refused to join Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, and other prominent Republicans in denouncing the candidacy of Akin or Richard Mourdock." Mourdock recently said if a woman was raped and became pregnant it was "God's will".

You may have never heard of Wayne Powell, but you’ve heard of his opponent. Powell, a retired Army veteran, is taking on the Republican House Majority Leader, Eric Cantor, in Virginia’s Seventh Congressional District.

Cantor’s own campaign admits Powell is the congressman’s most serious opponent since he took on Dukes of Hazzard star, Ben “Cooter” Jones, back in 2002.  Cantor won by a big margin, but his numbers have slipped in the decade since, giving Powell hope that he can unseat the Majority Leader.
