To the editor:

I am proud to support Emily Brewer in the Republican primary for the 64^th House of Delegates District on June 13.

She has been a longtime supporter of conservative candidates and causes, and I know that she will not only work hard for the constituents of her district, but will move the ball forward to keep government small and stand up for our values.

Emily is someone we can count on day in and day out to stand up to the liberal Democrats who are running the governor’s mansion. She is the kind of ally I need in Richmond.

When I ran for Attorney General, Emily actively worked to support my campaign against Democrat Mark Herring. We need folks who have a record of fighting for conservative values, and I know Emily does.

In the State Senate, I represent one of the largest rural districts in Virginia. I have fought against the Environmental Protection Agency and the Department of Environmental Quality to protect agriculture and know Emily is the right choice to do the same. Emily will also stand up for our property rights and fight government overreach.

She will work hard for you in Richmond, and I look forward to working with her.

Senator Mark D. Obenshain (R-26)

Harrisonburg
