WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina) today made this statement on his support for Sen. Ron Johnson’s (R-Wisconsin) candidacy for Vice Chair of the Senate Republican Conference.

“Ron will be a great addition to our leadership team.  He’s a sincere, hardworking member of the Senate who represents the spirit of the 2010 elections.  Ron is a new, fresh voice not attached to the old fights in Washington and will provide great common-sense advice to our leadership.  His years of experience in business will serve him well in this position.  I’m proud to support his candidacy.”
