RPAC Endorses Kevin Yoder
Posted on July 21, 2010
Overland Park, KS – Last week, the REALTORS® PAC endorsed Republican candidate Kevin Yoder for U.S. Congress in Kansas’ 3rd congressional district. The REALTORS® PAC is affiliated with the Kansas Association of REALTORS®, the state’s largest professional trade association representing over 8,000 members involved in all aspects of the residential and commercial real estate industries. Following individual interviews with candidates running in the Third Congressional District and a thorough evaluation of the candidates’ respective backgrounds and voting records, the Kansas RPAC Trustees voted unanimously to endorse Kevin Yoder and provide him with a financial campaign contribution for the 2010 Primary Election.
“Kevin Yoder is the right man to fight for lower taxes, fiscal responsibility and policies that promote economic and job growth in Congress and the REALTORS® PAC is proud to endorse him,” said Kansas City Regional Association of REALTORS® PAC Chair Pat Tholen, a REALTOR® from Leawood, Kansas. “We believe that Kevin’s strong record of championing lower taxes and pro-growth policies will be a huge asset for the small business community in the halls of Congress.”
“Given the current state of our economy, $13 trillion in national debt, and a soaring jobless rate, the Democratic leadership in Washington has clearly forgotten that small business is the engine that drives this economy,” says Yoder. “It is an honor to receive the support and endorsement from the REALTORS. Washington has a spending problem, and business owners all across America are footing the bill. It is time for some changes in our government and with the support of small business owners across the district and groups such as the REALTORS, I am confident my campaign will be successful and we can work together to bring about change and new leadership in Washington.”
Kevin Yoder has served in the Kansas Legislature for 8 years, representing parts of Overland Park and Leawood. He also serves as chairman of the Appropriations Committee and worked to craft a balanced budget without additional tax increases. Kevin and his wife Brooke live in Overland Park.
