G8 Summit: Another Unfunded Federal Mandate

By Ken Timmerman, on May 17, 2012

Thursday, May 17, 2012 - President Obama has delivered upon the backs of Frederick County taxpayers a costly burden by expecting local citizens and law enforcement authorities to shoulder the costs of extra security, sanitation and crowd control. 

The White House has a sizeable operating budget that should be shared with Frederick County to eliminate any debt or cost outlays the G-8 summit will incur. While Frederick County is honored to be home to Camp David, our citizens are not in the least bit honored to pay for the summit’s impact in the surrounding communities.

STATEMENT ON THE CONDUCT OF THE WASHINGTON, DC METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT

By Anonymous, on May 17, 2012

Thursday, May 17, 2012  - The Timmerman for Congress campaign (Maryland’s 8th District) issued the following statement today regarding the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Police:

Yesterday afternoon, Republican Congressional candidate Ken Timmerman was subjected to what many area residents are all too familiar with: an inept, feckless D.C. Metropolitan Police Department more interested in political correctness than public safety. A simple disagreement over an alleged traffic incident with another vehicle turned into an episode worthy of “Seinfeld”.

New Poll Shows the 8th is Hot!

By Ken Timmerman, on May 10, 2012

A professional poll conducted from May 2-4 with 1,000 respondents across the new 8th District found that I am already in striking distance of entrenched liberal Democrat, Chris Van Hollen.

The poll shows me at 40%, and my opponent at just 47% - and that’s before we have launched our mass voter outreach campaign next month.

Please tell your friends: this race is winnable! And please encourage them to sign-up for email updates at our campaign website.

TIMMERMAN FOR CONGRESS RAISES MORE THAN $26,000 IN ONE NIGHT

By Ken Timmerman, on May 7, 2012

I traveled to California over the weekend at the invitation of the American Mesopotamian Organization, where members of the Assyrian community in our country gathered to thank me for work I have done on behalf of persecuted Christians in Iraq.

Thanks to the efforts of Zaya and Sherry Younan, who so graciously opened their Westlake Village home to me, we were able to raise more than $26,000 in just one night.
