WASHINGTON, D.C. — FRC Action PAC, the political action committee connected with Family Research Council Action, is endorsing Jimmy Matlock for United States Congress in the 2nd Congressional District of the state of Tennessee.
FRC Action PAC Executive Vice President, Lt. General (Ret.) Jerry Boykin commented:
“These challenging times require bold, convicted leaders. From speaking with Jimmy Matlock and observing his more than decade-long record in the Tennessee House of Representatives, we believe he will be such a leader in the United States Congress in the seat vacated by Rep. Jim Duncan.
“Jimmy’s credentials as a small business owner and state legislator will serve him well as a member of Congress. We have noted his deep-rooted desire to promote the interests of working class Americans over special interest groups, and his determination to stand apart from career politicians lacking real-world achievements. We commend his commitment to a limited government and constitutional conservatism.
“We applaud Jimmy’s desire to protect the sanctity of all life and end taxpayers’ forced partnership with Planned Parenthood — the nation’s largest abortion provider. He understands the great importance of defending our religious freedom and cherished conscience protections so that the government does not force citizens to violate deeply-held religious beliefs. He also respects the central role the family must play if our nation is to thrive.
“FRC Action PAC is confident that if elected, Jimmy Matlock will continue to advocate for limited government and strong family values. We are pleased to offer our endorsement and encourage those who care about the future of our nation and our freedoms to do so as well,” concluded Boykin.
