Pledge to the 2nd Congressional District

Markwayne Mullin, conservative Republican for U.S. Congress, today released his pledge to the people of the 2nd District of Oklahoma.

“People are tired of politics as usual,” said Mullin. “I’ve learned that there are numerous Washington, D.C.-based groups who comprise political insiders and always ask you to sign pledges. Our commitment however always will be to the people of the 2nd District, which is why I have taken this pledge and signed my name to it. We will be making this pledge public and posting it on our website.”

I, Markwayne Mullin, pledge…

  • I will work to stop Obama’s socialist agenda.
  • I will stop excessive spending and oppose the growth of government.
