Alex Mooney for Congress 2012

Shortly before 5:00pm on Wednesday November 30, 2011, former Republican State Senator and current Maryland Republican Party Chairman Alex Mooney officially filed paperwork with the Federal Elections Commission to form a campaign fundraising committee called “Mooney for Congress.”

“With the recent news about Congressman Roscoe Bartlett’s long time chief-of-staff preparing to run for Congress and the Democratic Party’s cynical and corrupt redistricting plan to oust Congressman Bartlett, I felt it was time for me also to start an exploratory committee for Congress.  We cannot let Congressman Bartlett’s seat be taken by a tax-and-spend liberal like Rob Garagiola.  Our economy is suffering and we need more jobs — not more government, more debt and more taxes,” said Mooney.

Donations can be made to “Mooney for Congress” and Mr. Mooney plans to officially file as a candidate for Congress in January, at which time he would step down from his position as Chairman of the Maryland Republican Party and take a leave of absence from his job running a non-profit organization which trains journalists.
