U.S. Chamber Endorses Rep. Denny Rehberg

Congressman an Ally to Business Community

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The U.S. Chamber of Commerce today announced its endorsement of Rep. Denny Rehberg (R-MT-AL) for re-election, praising his strong support for Montana businesses, both large and small.

"Denny Rehberg has been a champion for the people of Montana and an invaluable leader on important business issues," said Bill Miller, the U.S. Chamber's senior vice president and political director. "The Chamber believes Rep. Rehberg will continue to be an effective legislator and supporter of businesses of every size if re-elected."

Rep. Rehberg has worked to advocate programs and initiatives important to Montana including trade, transportation, housing, energy, and tax reform.

"On issues ranging from economic competitiveness to fiscal responsibility, Montana's business community has no better friend than Denny Rehberg," said Miller.

The U.S. Chamber is playing a major role in the upcoming national elections, endorsing candidates who have demonstrated support for business priorities and will work to advance a pro-growth agenda in Congress. In 2006, 222 of the 277 Chamber endorsed candidates were elected.

The U.S. Chamber is the world's largest business federation representing more than 3 million businesses and organizations of every size, sector, and region.
