Duncan Hunter, Member of Congress

"Dear John,

Thank you for your many years of outstanding public service with the San Bernardino County Fire Agency and for your many years of service as an elected official on the Fontana City Council.

John, it is with great honor that I extend my best wishes to you in your bid for the U.S. House of Representatives and it is my pleasure to herewith give my personal endorsement to you in your Congressional campaign.

God speed and all my best to you in the hard months ahead."

Sincerely,

Duncan Hunter

Member of Congress"

Congressman Hunter's first assignment in Congress was to the House Armed Services Committee, where he is presently Ranking Member.  Congressman Hunter focuses his national security efforts on providing the President the resources he needs to win the nation's military conflicts, modernization initiatives that quickly move new and effective technologies into the field, making the Department of Defense more efficient by moving resources from redundant and unnecessary bureaucracy to warfighting capabilities, and strongly supporting our nation's military personnel and their families by ensuring that they are well-compensated and well-equipped with safe and effective weapons and equipment.  Prior to his current position as Ranking Member, Congressman Hunter served as Chairman of the full committee from 2003-2007, responsible for a defense budget totaling more than $500 billion.  Hunter also served as Chairman of the Military Research & Development Subcommittee from 2001-2002 and the Subcommittee on Military Procurement from 1995-2000, where he presided over $60 billion for the acquisition of military weapon systems and components.

NOTE: I have not asked my good friend San Bernardino County Supervisor and former Fontana Council Member Josie Gonzales for an endorsement because I did not want to put her in an uncomfortable position with my opponent. She however, has my eternal gratitude for what she has done for the City of Fontana and the 5th Supervisorial District of San Bernardino County.
