PUTNAM SAYS HE MAY WANT TO GO UP THE GOP LEADERSHIP LADDER SOME MORE

Last night, while Congressman Adam Putnam (R - Bartow) was celebrating his easy victory over two opponents for reelection to his 12th District seat, he told a Tampa television reporter that he may seek the Chairmanship of the House Republican Conference, currently held by Congresswoman Deborah Price (R - OH).

The HRC provides support services to Republican Members of Congress in the conduct of their work, such as fact sheets, issue briefs, talking points, and legislative digests.

Putnam was elected Chairman of the Republican House Policy Committee, making him fifth among the GOP House leadership. He was elected Tuesday to a fourth two-year term in Congress representing most of Polk County, along with portions of Hillsborough and Osceola counties.
