Posted by Press Office on December 19, 2010

Congressman John Boehner (R-West Chester) hosted a reception yesterday evening in West Chester to congratulate the 24 Eighth Congressional District students selected to receive nominations to the U.S. service academies. WestChesterBuzz.com has coverage:

Boehner worked the room, introducing himself and mingling with the families before taking a few moments to speak about the 2015 [class of] nominees.

‘These individuals are highly capable and likely to get appointments to their respective academies,” Boehner said. ‘I’d like to thank the parents, because if you hadn’t done a great job up until now, your children wouldn’t be here today.’

We have been saying, nobody listens to the "majority" Congress just does what they want, not the will of the people. Please listen to us.... We need to cut the budget and be able to live, create jobs, and not worry about all of the other Countries in the World until America is sound once more time. We are not college graduates, but we have worked all of our lives and want to keep what we have to live on... Stop giving everything away.... Think about us. We live in OHIO and winter in Texas. Please make changes that need to be made in Washington....... I feel our rep. from OHIO are doing their part. Ruby Cover
