Terry Neese launches campaign for 5th District GOP nomination

TERRY NEESE LAUNCHES CAMPAIGN FOR OKLAHOMA’S 5TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT SEAT

Neese: “I have spent my entire career fighting for more opportunities for men, women, and families to help them secure brighter futures – and that is exactly what I will continue to do as your Representative in Congress.”

Oklahoma City, OK – Terry Neese, a conservative Republican, entrepreneur, international executive, and small business advocate, today launched her campaign for Oklahoma’s 5th Congressional District seat.

“Like many of the hard-working residents of the 5th District, I am deeply concerned with the political infighting in Washington and the direction in which our country is moving,” said Terry Neese. “I believe our district has a chance to get our nation back on track, but it will take sending a proven leader to Congress who has the private sector experience and conservative principles to stand up to Nancy Pelosi and pass policies that will unleash our economy, keep our nation secure, and protect future generations from crippling national debt.”

A lifelong Oklahoman, Terry Neese has spent 31 years in the private sector creating and finding jobs for men and women as the founder of Terry Neese Personnel Services (TNPS), National Grassroots Network, and the Institute for Economic Empowerment of Women (IEEW). As the co-founder of Women Impacting Public Policy (WIPP) and as a Distinguished Fellow for the National Center for Policy Analysis, Neese has also been a leading advocate for the advancement of economic opportunities for women, men, and families across the nation.

Neese is the former president of the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO). Under her leadership, the organization led the successful passage of H.R. 5050, which President Ronald Reagan signed into law. This historic legislation made it possible for women business owners to obtain a small business loan or credit card without a male signature.

As Congresswoman for Oklahoma’s 5th District, Neese pledges to put her experience to work and help President Trump pass an agenda that will unleash our true economic potential, keep our nation secure, and protect future generations from crippling national debt.

“I am the clear conservative choice who will help President Trump deliver on his agenda to put America first and get Congress back to doing the work of the people,” said Neese. “I have spent my entire career fighting for more opportunities for men, women, and families to help them secure brighter futures – and that is exactly what I will continue to do as your Representative in Congress.”

Neese also said Democratic incumbent Representative Kendra Horn will have to answer for her first vote in Congress, which made ultraliberal Rep. Nancy Pelosi Speaker of the House.

Neese added: "Kendra Horn's very first action in Congress was to hand the keys to every committee and subcommittee in the House to Nancy Pelosi, which empowered members such as socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. By supporting open borders, the murder of defenseless babies, a 90 percent income tax rate, and a socialized healthcare system that would cost taxpayers nearly $32 trillion, it is clear Democrats in Washington have lost sight of what our forefathers fought for. As a true conservative outsider and small business owner, I know how to get government out of the way of the American people so we can restore the American Dream for future generations.”

Neese and her husband, Earl, were pilots.  They were married for 39 years before he passed in 2012. She is a mother and grandmother as well.
