FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE October 25, 2012

ARLINGTON, VA – Today, our campaign announced Virginia Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders for Romney. This election is a choice between two very different visions for our nation’s future – and Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders across Virginia know they cannot afford another four years like the last four years.  President Obama does not have a record to run on and people across Virginia are disappointed that he has failed to put forward a new plan for the future. Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan are offering exactly what our nation needs – real reforms for a real recovery.
 
“Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders have wonderful cultures that enrich all of America,” said Mitt Romney.  “For generations, members of this community have contributed to our country, started new businesses and invented new products, and served with honor and distinction in the fight to protect freedom all around the world. I am honored to have the support of such great Asian Americans, and look forward to working with them to get our country on the right track again.” 
 
“President Obama has failed to offer any new ideas or new direction for America and his glossy ‘new’ agenda is just more of the same,” said Delegate Ron Villanueva. “When Mitt Romney is president, we will have pro-growth policies that reform our tax code, foster upward mobility, and bring America back to the best place in the world to start a business, hire a worker, and raise a family. That is why I am honored to serve on this board and do everything I can to help get Mitt Romney elected as the next President of the United States.”
