February 24, 2016

Today, two local Republican officials– Kim Bradley, President of the Hattiesburg City Council, and Chris Bowen, a member of the Forrest County Board of Supervisors– announced they have joined Governor John Kasich's presidential campaign as members of the Kasich for America Leadership Team.

Said Bradley, "I am proud to stand with so many conservative leaders in Mississippi and endorse Gov. John Kasich for president. We need strong leadership in the White House from someone who understands the urgency felt by families and individuals to get our economy moving again with job-friendly and pro-growth solutions."

City Council President Kim Bradley is serving his third term as the representative for Ward One in Hattiesburg, Mississippi.

Said Bowen, "We need John Kasich in the White House. I support his efforts to reduce Washington regulations and restore power and influence to state and local government. I look forward to sharing his message in our county and across the state."

Chris Bowen was elected to the Forrest County Board of Supervisors in 2007. He represents District 5.

Said Kasich, "Our team in Mississippi is growing rapidly. Kim Bradley and Chris Bowen are remarkable leaders in Hattiesburg and Forrest County, and we are fortunate to have them on the team as we work to empower local officials to make decisions that impact their communities the most."
