FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Pasadena, TX – In August 2007, a temporary law called the Protect America Act was created to correct the “terrorist loophole” of the outdated Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) of 1978. Democrat Nick Lampson allowed the Protect America Act to expire which prevents U.S. counter-terrorism professionals from having the tools necessary to intercept intelligence that protects us from more threats of terrorism. “Nick Lampson skipped town knowing that our national security was at stake leaving Texas families unsafe,” stated John Manlove. “Just like he sided with Nancy Pelosi for open-borders on illegal immigration, Nick Lampson chose to follow her lead on weakening our country’s ability in a post 9/11 global war on terror to have the proper surveillance tools to find and stop terrorists in this country,” Manlove continued. John Manlove knows the value of the nearby Port of Houston, and he knows no one can afford to let their guard down while ships cruise in and out of the Port. John Manlove knows the best way to protect the economy and America’s security is by giving the professionals what they need to keep America safe. |

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Texas Border Busted, Broken and Violated Pasadena, TX – Democrat “Slick Nick” Lampson recently put his track shoes on, rushed to El Paso, and participated in an illegal immigration public relations stunt to mask the fact he has done nothing during his term in Congress while our Texas border was being violated. “Nick Lampson is an open-border liberal who fails to stand up for the rule of law,” stated John Manlove. “In fact, he sided with Nancy Pelosi when he thought no one was looking, and then voted to give tax-payer handouts to illegal immigrants,” Manlove continued. (House Roll Call Vote 814 on August 2, 2007) The people of congressional district 22 deserve better than what Nick Lampson is offering. “It’s time to get tough on illegal immigration and secure our borders now. As your congressman, you count on me to oppose amnesty, sanctuary cities, driver’s licenses and taxpayer benefits to illegal immigrants. And, I will not stop until the job is done,” declared Manlove. ###

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Pasadena, Sugar Land Perform DuetMayors Dave Wallace and John Manlove sing to raise money forNational Veterans Museum and Fort Bend C ClubPasadena, TX -- Last Friday, Pasadena and Sugar Land leadership culled American pride and musical talent in honor of two important causes. John Manlove, former mayor of Pasadena and candidate for U.S. Congressional District 22, joined with Sugar Land Mayor Dave Wallace, an 11-piece band, a group of decorated war veterans and a life-size replica of the Liberty Bell to raise money and human capital for the National Veterans Museum and the Fort Bend C Club. After a packed house had cleared, the Veteran's Museum had raised more than $76,000 and the Fort Bend C Club had 50 new members.

Manlove today announced that he will resign as mayor and seek the Republican nomination for U.S. Congress in the 22 nd District of Texas. "After much prayer and consultation with my family and trusted friends, I have decided to run for Congress in the 22nd District of Texas," said Mayor Manlove. "I am running for Congress because I believe we need a clear plan for change. I want action on border security, real tax reform and to revitalize the US economy. I want the torch of liberty to shine so bright our grandchildren will see it. In recent years, I have watched as our personal freedom and liberty decrease while the number of entitlements and the size of government increase. As your Congressman, I will fight for common sense government." "As Mayor, I ran our city like a business, balanced the budget, controlled spending, delivered a two million dollar surplus, abolished the city tax department and we created one of the lowest tax rates in the area. Under my leadership, we were the first large city in Texas to cap taxes on senior citizens and disabled residents who own their own homes. I want to do for the 22 nd District what I've done for Pasadena," said Manlove. Mayor Manlove stated, "America is at a crossroads. The people don't trust Congress because Congress has failed to secure our borders; failed to control spending; failed to provide substantial tax reform; and Congress has undercut our President, military commanders and troops in the field in time of war. Real reform in Washington begins when we remind Congress that the Constitution reads 'We the People' not ' Us the Government. '" Mayor Manlove said that it would take a proven reformer to reform Congress. "As Mayor, I changed the way government did business. As Congressman, I'll put my record of reform and business experience to work so we once again have a government we can be proud of." John Manlove also pledged to defend our traditional Texas values. "As a husband of 31 years and the father of two, I will protect our God-given values by defending traditional marriage and protecting the rights of the unborn. I believe every life is a gift from God and that we are created in God's image. I'm a pro-life, pro-family conservative." Manlove continued, "As a Christian, I have put my faith into action. I've been a missionary to the poor in some of the most remote places in the world and served God as a pastor, Sunday school teacher and music leader. My business also works with churches to spread their ministry and I wrote a book on " How to Market Your Church and Get Results. Faith and family has always been my foundation, and I have never apologized for being a Christian. John G. Manlove is 54 years old. He has been married to Gina for 31 years and is the father of two daughters, who graduated from Baylor University. Manlove started his business in a one-car garage. Today, John Manlove Marketing and Communications is an award-winning, multi-million dollar family business. The firm was chosen "Business of the Year" for community service by Baylor University.

In case you have not yet heard, one candidate in this race who moved to the district just six months ago has relied on Washington, DC lobbyists to fund his campaign. In fact, he still owns a house in Virginia and pays taxes in Virginia. Your next congressman should not be a person from Virginia bought and paid for by Washington DC insiders.
And another opponent of mine has a debt of almost a $500,000 in her campaign. That’s fiscally irresponsible and if we are going to clean up wasteful spending in Washington, she can’t be trusted to do the job.
