U.S. Congressional Candidate Anna C. Little Issues Statement on Recent Shooting in Colorado

littleadmin — Tue, 24 Jul 2012 05:43:22 +0000

HIGHLANDS, NJ, July 23rd – Commenting on the Aurora, Colorado movie theater massacre, Anna
Little, candidate for the Sixth Congressional District said, “Our sincerest prayers go out to the families of
the victims and survivors of the senseless shooting rampage that occurred on Friday, July 20, in Colorado.
This is an example of how the delusions of one individual’s twisted mind can have tragic consequences
for the lives of so many families.”

Individuals carrying out incidents of mass violence with firearms tarnish our Second Amendment
freedoms. Gun control advocates exploit such tragedies to blame gun stores, manufacturers, and even the
entertainment industry, rather than hold the individual responsible for their criminal actions. Responsible
and mentally stable citizens understand that they must respect and properly handle firearms, and that the
purpose of firearms is to defend the innocent against acts of violence, not to cause them.

The shooting in Colorado is an act of domestic terrorism. The victims were randomly selected while
attending what they thought would be an entertaining night out. Meanwhile, the President refuses to
recognize the act of domestic terrorism that took place at Fort Hood, Texas, on November 5, 2009. The
President classifies that incident as “workplace violence.” http://nation.foxnews.com/ft-hoodshooting/
2011/12/07/obama-regime-calls-ft-hood-shooting-workplace-violence

Individuals responsible for many of these shootings often exhibit mental health disturbances. We must be
more aware of those who express radical views of violence, so that we can give them proper mental
health care. This can help prevent future attacks on innocent civilians. Additionally, authorities must not
be afraid to investigate violent extremism, such as the Fort Hood shooting. Americans deserve the truth so
they can take steps to protect themselves and others.

We must be vigilant and prepared to prevent future incidents of terrorism in any form. There may be
other “lone wolf” terrorists, like the Colorado movie theater, or there may be bombings, similar to the
April 19, 1995 Oklahoma City attack, the failed car bomb attack on Times Square on May 1, 2010, or the
planned New York City subway attack that was foiled on July 31, 1997. http://articles.cnn.com/1997-08-
01/us/9708_01_brooklyn.bomb.presser_1_hamas-gazi-ibrahim-abu-mezer-lafi-khalil?_s=PM:US
As Americans, we must increase our awareness and vigilance against future threats, as the world is
becoming a less secure place due to economic hardships, political instability, and radical violent
extremism.

Our hearts and prayers go out to the victims and survivors of the Aurora, Colorado attack, as well as to
the victims and survivors of terrorism everywhere.

U.S. Congressional Candidate Anna C. Little Issues Statement on the UN Gun Ban Treaty

littleadmin — Tue, 17 Jul 2012 19:59:46 +0000

HIGHLANDS, NJ, July 16th – Anna Little, candidate for the Sixth Congressional District here,
condemned the U.N. Small Arms Ban Treaty that lawmakers in D.C. are taking up this week.
“The U.N. has repeatedly failed to protect innocent civilians, and we have no reason to trust the
U.N.,” she said. “The United Nations anti-gun agenda has only led to mass genocide. U.N.
resolutions have failed to prevent ‘ethnic cleansing,’ murder, sexual assaults, and forced
displacement of civilians by those in authority.”

Currently, the U.N. has sent Kofi Annan as special U.N. Envoy to negotiate peace in the Syrian
civil conflict. Previously, Annan became head of U.N. Peacekeeping Forces in March 1993, and
later became Secretary General of the U.N. During his tenure, the largest modern-day mass
slaughters occurred: in Rwanda in 1994, in Bosnia in 1995, and in Kosovo in 1999.

It is also disturbing that the U.N. is meeting this month to discuss a small-arms weapons ban
treaty. Without small arms, Libyans would have been unable to protect themselves from the
Muammar Gaddafi’s henchmen, not end his dictatorship in 2011. Moreover, it was NOT the
U.N. who helped Libyans, but the direct intervention of military forces from the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization (NATO). NATO forces also established peace in Bosnia and Kosovo,
whereas the U.N. utterly failed to protect the people of Rwanda, Bosnia, and Kosovo from
attack.

Incidents can happen anywhere due to the failings of human nature. Here in the United States,
Condoleezza Rice mentioned in her biography how her father joined a neighborhood watch to
protect African American homes from being burned down by racists in the 1960's. The local
police at that time did nothing to stop these attacks, nor did they arrest anyone for burning down
homes in her Alabama neighborhood. If not for the rights protected by the Second Amendment,
her family and neighbors would not have had the rifles or shotguns to protect their families from
the racists at night. This is why our Founders specifically called out this right for all citizens:
When the government and police fail to protect honest civilians, to whom do you turn for
protection?

The U.N. gun ban does nothing to protect people. All it does is create a greater population
subject to victimization by gangs, criminals, and tyrants. The Founding Fathers of the United
States, through hard experience in the lawless frontier and in relations with a royal government
increasingly hostile to their rights as subjects, deemed the right to bear arms as key to individual
self protection and so enshrined this inalienable right in the Second Amendment.

The Founders also saw the right to bear arms as an essential element of freedom, providing our
citizens and all free peoples assurances against tyranny and despotism. They knew that dictators
tend to restrict or ban their subjects from possessing arms in order to help control the population,
as King James II had attempted to do about a century earlier. In the 20th Century, some of
history’s most notorious tyrants, including the leaders of Germany and the Soviet Union in the
mid-1930's, imposed rigid gun restrictions.

But this administration refuses to acknowledge the wisdom of our Founders. U.S. Attorney
General Eric Holder, in February 2009, mentioned his support of the President's ban to sell
assault weapons to Americans. Yet Holder allows assault weapons to be sold and transported to
the drug cartels in Mexico under the disastrous Fast and Furious Operation. Why does the U.S.
Attorney General permit drug cartels to obtain assault weapons, but law-abiding Americans
residing in urban neighborhoods of Chicago, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. can not
purchase pistols for self protection?

Like many of my constituents and Americans across the country, I believe the State of Texas’
Castle Law Doctrine is the proper and responsible way for honest citizens to own firearms to
protect their families and homes. Independence is being able to take care of yourself, rather than
relying solely on the government for every form of support.

We are one of the few free countries that allow the average citizen to own firearms. We must
elect a new President, Senator, and Congressional Representative who will protect our Second
Amendment rights and prevent the UN from oppressing our nation. Please write to your elected
officials and contact the President today, and ask them not to give away our right to bear arms to
the U.N.

U.S. Congressional Candidate Anna C. Little Urges Her Supporters and the General Public to Help Victims of Recent Devastating Fires in Perth Amboy and Woodbridge

littleadmin — Mon, 16 Jul 2012 18:50:05 +0000

HIGHLANDS, NJ, July 14 - Three catastrophic fires have raged in Sixth Congressional District
municipalities over the last 6 weeks, leaving more than 200 people homeless. Sixth District
candidate, Anna Little, urges her supporters and the general public to help these displaced
families by making donations of food, baby supplies, clothing, and financial contributions.
In the early morning hours of Sunday, June 3, an electrical malfunction sparked an intense fire
that consumed several homes on Cortland Street in Perth Amboy, leaving 52 homeless and
injuring nine, including a family of three who were hospitalized with second- and third-degree
burns.

On Thursday, July 5, a five-alarm fire occurred at 485 State Street in Perth Amboy, displacing
sixty people. Seven people were injured in the fire.

Then, on Wednesday, July 10, another devastating fire occurred at the Woodbridge Village
apartments in the Avenel section of Woodbridge. The fire destroyed fifty apartments, leaving
another 100 people homeless. Thankfully, there were no serious injuries.

Monetary donations for the victims of the fire in Perth Amboy can be made to the Jewish
Renaissance Foundation (JRF), Attn.: State Street Fire Fund and/or Cortlandt Street Fire Fund,
149 Kearny Ave., Perth Amboy, NJ 08861. Monetary donations may also be made via its web
site, www.jrfnj.org. Drop-offs for new clothing and shoes can be made at the JRF office at 149
Kearny Ave.

The First Presbyterian Church, at 621 East Woodbridge Avenue in Avenel, is handling collections
for victims of the Woodbridge fire, including diapers and toiletries. There are several drop-off
points located elsewhere in the town. For more information about what and how to donate, call
the church at 732-634-1631. Monetary contributions can be made through the Woodbridge
Mayor's Office, with checks made out to the Mayor's Community Charity Fund.

U.S. Congressional Candidate Anna C. Little Issues Statement on the Impact to American Society if PPACA is not Repealed

littleadmin — Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:49:13 +0000

HIGHLANDS, NJ, July 12th – Under the guise of providing “optional” birth control services,
President Obama and his supporters in the Senate and House of Representatives, led by Harry
Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Bob Menendez, and Frank Pallone, will deny We the People's freedom to
practice religion under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA), commonly
referred to as Obamacare. By infringing this freedom, Obama and his supporters also impede
critical aid to the neediest of Americans, indeed all Americans.

The Catholic Church has advocated for the right to life from conception until natural death, for
generations and is the only Christian denomination that continues to stand against the use of
artificial birth control. Adults who voluntarily choose to patronize or work at Catholic
institutions are already aware of the Church's position on these matters. Adults who wish to
receive prescription birth control while employed or attending a Catholic institution can choose
to purchase birth control on their own or patronize another institution. No one forces these
individuals to adhere to the Church's beliefs, violate their convictions, or attend Catholic
institutions. They are free to choose.

However, the PPACA threatens to close down charitable institutions sponsored by the Catholic
Church, through fines and penalties for refusing to perform abortions, sterilizations or provide
prescription birth control. These fines would force these Catholic institutions to choose between
violating the tenets of their faith, or obeying their consciences and facing increased costs that
will have to either be passed on to those receiving their services, or have the increased costs
reduce them to bankruptcy and closure. Either option denies Catholics and all people of faith the
freedom to practice their religion. Not only will Catholics and other Christians suffer from the
denial to operate ministries, but the entire country will suffer from the loss of the Church’s
charity work, which will be especially painful now, in this time of critical need.

Take for example, education: the Catholic Church educates 2.6 million children every year, at a
cost of $10 billion a year to students’ parents and sponsoring parishes.1 The same 2.6 million
children would cost taxpayers an estimated $18 billion to teach in public schools.1 The Church
also operates 230 Catholic colleges and universities in the U.S. which educate more than 700,000
students each year, and they advance to achieve top positions in their fields.1

If the Catholic schools are closed, parents in low-income, urban districts would be forced to send
their children back to failing public schools, compounding the existing overcrowding conditions.
College students would be forced to apply and enroll at new institutions, possibly losing
education credits, or possibly paying more tuition in order to meet different college requirements
for graduation. All existing schools and colleges would have to increase public school taxes and
college tuition costs to cover construction of new facilities and added teacher expenses to
accommodate the influx of new students.

The Catholic Church also operates 637 nonprofit hospitals, which treat one in five patients in the
United States every day.1 Through Catholic Charities, the Church also provides food, shelter,
clothing, counseling and other services to the poor and needy nationwide, regardless of the
client’s religious affiliation. As just one small example, the local chapter of Catholic Charities in
the Chicago area provides 2.2-million free meals each year.1 That is just one of the cities served
by Catholic Charities, and just one part of its mission.

If Catholic hospitals, schools, and charities are closed, who will support those in the most dire
need in low income, urban areas? Government programs are already failing to support them now.
By closing down religiously affiliated charities who provide education, health care, and other
services, PPACA will not help people, but rather will push those already struggling to survive to
complete collapse.

We must protect our freedom to practice our faith, as well as our freedom to choose which
schools and hospitals to meet our family’s needs. We must continue to allow the Catholic
Church and other religious groups to provide education, health care, and other services to those
in greatest need, an essential practice of the Christian faith. Closing Catholic and religious
charities will only increase the costs to the taxpayer, while decreasing services to the
communities.

This is the reality of Socialist and Communist forms of government, and the suppression of a
fundamental right: freedom of religion. History has shown us what happened when the Socialist
and Communist-led governments of 1930s’ Germany and Russia moved to suppress the people's
belief in God, eliminated the freedom to practice religion, and forced people to rely on
government for every need.

We must repeal PPACA before this happens. We must elect new leadership for the offices of
President, Senate, and Congress. This is how We the People will protect our United States
Constitution, freedom, and unique way of life.

Anna C. Little Runs Again for Sixth District Congressional Seat; Candidate Outlines Core Principles and Key Issues

littleadmin — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 19:26:22 +0000

HIGHLANDS, NJ – Republican Anna Little, former Highlands Mayor and Monmouth
County Freeholder, is running again in 2012 to represent the people of New Jersey’s
6th Congressional District. Key issues for the candidate include job creation, the repeal
of Obamacare, energy independence, and federal tax reform. According to Little,
solutions to these problems should be based on the core principles of fiscal
responsibility, constitutionally limited government, and free markets.

In a remarkable effort in the 2010 election against incumbent Democrat, Frank Pallone,
Little won 25 of the 40 towns in the solidly Democrat 6th District. In addition, she came
within only 100 votes of beating Pallone in ten of the 15 other towns in the district.
In 2010, Anna Little received over 65,000 votes compared to the incumbent's 82,000
votes, making it the closest election for Pallone since 1992, when he ran against Joe
Kyrillos. In fact, in every race between 2000 and 2008, Pallone beat his Republican
challenger by more than a 2 to 1 ratio.

This year, Little received the Middlesex County Republican Organization nomination for
the 6th Congressional District in an open convention. She will be running off the
Republican line in Monmouth County, where the Republican committee held a closed
nomination session.

As an advocate for We The People, Little wants to bring the voice of the people of New
Jersey to the House floor for discussion and for vote. The core conservative values that
drive Little are:
 Fiscal responsibility – Just as a family needs to restrict its budget to the amount of
its income, the federal government must restrict its spending. Failure to do so
results in higher taxes and strangling debt, threatening our national sovereignty,
national security, and the personal and economic liberty of our future generations.
 Constitutionally limited government – Our Founders intended the federal
government to be one of limited powers – one that is “of the people, by the people
and for the people.”
 Free markets – To enhance a healthy economy, businesses should be as free as
possible from government intervention.

Little believes that the most important issue in this year’s election is jobs. She
understands the current recession and lack of jobs will not be cured by one magic
bullet, but will, instead, require a number of solutions. However, according to Little, the
most important keys to job growth and economic recovery are lower taxes and energy
costs, which will reduce the financial burdens on the private sector, especially small
businesses that drive the American economy. With these lower expenses, companies
will be able to create new jobs and put Americans back to work.

The higher business productivity and output resulting from an increase in jobs will make
American goods and services more affordable, allowing the U.S. to regain its
competitiveness in the global market place. This will further enhance our economic
growth, bringing prosperity to all Americans.

Little would vote to repeal the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA),
popularly dubbed ObamaCare. (However, since her Democrat opponent proudly claims
to be a primary author of the entire legislation, she refers to it as PalloneCare.) In its
place, she proposes the following sensible health care reforms:
 Establishing a patient choice directed free market health care system to make
health care affordable;
 Enacting tort reform;
 Allowing health care insurance providers to sell policies across state lines to
increase competition;
 Encouraging HSAs – Health Savings Accounts, which would put people in direct
control of their health care, without any third party interference;
 Removing antitrust protection for insurance companies.

Little believes that energy independence is a matter of national security. Accordingly,
Little advocates the need for a comprehensive energy policy that develops all of our
valuable energy sources in an environmentally responsible way, including domestic
production of oil, natural gas, and clean coal. This would not only enhance our national
security and lower gasoline and energy prices, but would also create millions of wellpaying
American jobs. Little opposes Cap and Trade and favors the free market
promotion of alternative energy.

Little backs sweeping tax reform, since the current federal tax system enormously
handicaps our economy. She supports the FairTax (HR 25), a comprehensive proposal
that would eliminate all federal income tax, capital gains tax, and death tax, as well as
dismantling the IRS, and would replace all these with a single national sales tax. The
FairTax proposal also includes a “prebate” which would ensure no one below the
poverty level would pay federal taxes on their spending. Alternatively, Little will give
strong consideration to a flat tax. By eliminating the corporate tax, or drastically lowering
it with a flat tax, such reforms would unleash the private economy. Companies from all
over the world would rush to relocate to the U.S., bringing back countless jobs to our
shores.

After 24 years in Congress, liberal Frank Pallone is out of touch with the average
American citizen. But Anna Little will fight for We the People, on issues that matter such
as job creation, the repeal of ObamaCare, energy independence, and federal tax
reform. We cannot change Washington, without changing the people we send there.

U.S. Congressional Candidate Anna C. Little Attends Israel Memorial Day Commemoration and Independence Day Celebration

littleadmin — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 19:24:31 +0000

EAST BRUNSWICK, NJ – On Thursday night, April 26, 2012, Anna C. Little attended a
moving Israel Independence Day celebration and Israel Memorial Day commemoration at the
East Brunswick Jewish Center.

Yom HaZikaron, the Israeli Memorial Day, commemorating Israeli soldiers and citizens who
have sacrificed their lives for the State of Israel, occurred on Tuesday night, April 24 through
Wednesday, April 25. Yom Ha’Atzmaut, the Israeli Independence Day, which occurred on
Wednesday night, April 25 through Thursday, April 26, celebrates the birth of the State of Israel
in 1948.

The evening began with East Brunswick Jewish Center congregant, Yigal Oren, husband of the
event’s organizer, Deena Oren, describing his experiences and difficulties endured while trying
to emigrate from Iraq to Israel, along with his subsequent move to New Jersey. Another
congregant described how, as a child, his parents paid to smuggle him and his siblings out of
Iraq, through Iran, and then eventually to Israel in the 1950's. His parents were not able to leave
until years later due to restrictions imposed on the Jewish population from the Iraqi government.

Following Oren’s presentation, the evening proceeded with a Memorial Service, commemorating
those who sacrificed their lives in establishing and defending the State of Israel, along with those
who were victims of terror. The service included several Israeli songs, prayers in memory of
those who died, emotional accounts of soldiers killed while defending Israel and terrorist
victims, and the singing of the U.S. National Anthem.

“I was deeply moved to hear the heartbreaking story of a man who lost his fiancé in a terrorist
bus bombing in Jerusalem, while he was visiting the Oren family in New Jersey,” Little said.
Deena Oren described undergoing the anxiety of not knowing what happened, along with the
fear of her friend possibly learning about the death through the Internet. “Hearing how Oren’s
friend recovered from such loss and continued his life in a positive manner shows the stoic
courage that is so emblematic of how Israelis live their lives in the face of the dangers from
Palestinian terrorists and hostile neighbors.”

Following a heartwarming singing of Hatikvah, “The Hope,” the national anthem of Israel, the
evening concluded with a festive celebration and dinner in honor of Yom Ha’Atzmaut. The
dinner featured Israeli food catered by Maoz, an Israeli food chain with a location in New
Brunswick. The celebration also included contemporary Israeli music and dancing. Little said,
“It was wonderful watching the children play and adults dancing to celebrate life, freedom, and
the birth of the State of Israel.”

A week earlier, Wednesday night, April 18, through Thursday, April 19, marked Yom Hashoah,
Holocaust Remembrance Day. “During the Holocaust, six million Jews, and eleven million souls
of all faiths and nationalities were murdered,” Little said. “Those who perished in the Holocaust
had no choice. But those who died to found and defend the State if Israel, which emerged from
the ashes of the Holocaust, freely chose to sacrifice their lives to establish and defend a country
of their own.”

Little continued, “We salute and celebrate the modern State of Israel on the occasion of her 64th
birthday. We believe in supporting Israel, a beacon of democracy and economic opportunity for
the Middle East and the world. Israel remains our steadfast strategic ally, helping to fight
common enemies, and collaborating with the Unites States on military technology and
intelligence. We share a common religious heritage with Israel, the birth place of the Jewish and
Christian faiths. We also share in common the democratic values of freedom, the rule of law, and
the rights of the individual. As the United States of America continues to illumine the world as a
‘shining city on a hill,’ the State of Israel and its people are and always will be a ‘light unto the
nations.’”

U.S. Congressional Candidate Anna C. Little issues statement on National Day of Prayer

littleadmin — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 19:23:19 +0000

New Jersey is incredibly blessed and privileged as the only state in the U. S. A. to have a law
honoring the First Thursday in May as a Day of Prayer! New Jersey Statute 36:2-34, titled “'A
Day of Prayer in New Jersey’ designated,” states that “the first Thursday in May each year is
designated as ‘A Day of Prayer in New Jersey’ and the citizens of New Jersey are urged to
observe the day in ways appropriate to its importance and significance.” L.1994,c.44.

In order to do good work we must possess a pure purpose and a pure heart. We must hold God at
our center if we are to keep our methods pure. As Americans we hold fast to the values instilled
in us by our families and our religious beliefs. At this time of crisis when Religious Liberty is
threatened by our government it is more important than ever to reinforce the need for prayer to
keep us close to God and follow His guidance.

Let this be our prayer:

O Lord, fill us with your grace, and grant us wisdom and courage as we work to bring your
people closer to you. May our work be your work and our will be your will as we walk your
path and strive to follow your ways. Help us to elect true representatives who understand
that government must provide freedom of religion, not freedom from religion. Protect our
military in harm’s way, and secure their safe return to their families. Help us to appreciate
the sacrifice of those who are willing to lay down their lives for their country.

Seal our hearts in humble servitude to our fellow citizens as we dedicate ourselves to
emulating the self sacrifice for the good of future generations which is the legacy of the
founders and the bedrock of the American Spirit.

We pray that you will guide our hands as we do all things in Your Name. Amen.

Please spend some time in prayer with loved ones today exercising your unalienable right to
practice your religion openly here in the United States. Remember in prayer all those living
under oppression who long for the opportunity to pray openly and freely worship their God.
May God bless you and your families. May God Bless America.

Anna C. Little, 6th District Congressional Candidate, Receives the Endorsements of the Bayshore Tea Party Group, the West Jersey Tea Party, and the Independence Hall Tea Party PAC

littleadmin — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 19:22:20 +0000

HIGHLANDS, NJ – Sixth District Congressional candidate, Anna Little, was recently endorsed
by three key New Jersey Tea Party groups, bringing her total to four Tea Party endorsements for
the 2012 campaign.

The Independence Hall Tea Party PAC announced its endorsement of Little on Wednesday, May
9. A week earlier, the Bayshore Tea Party Group announced its endorsement of Little on
Thursday, May 3, and the West Jersey Tea Party announced its endorsement on Friday, May 4.
In April, Little received the backing of the Monmouth County Tea Party Coalition, which holds
meetings in Keyport, New Jersey.

The Bayshore Tea Party Group announced its endorsement of Little after a vote taken by the
group’s members via e-mail. “I hope we can summon up the passion and energy that will be
needed to fight another uphill battle. If we work hard, we can win,” wrote Barbara Gonzalez,
Bayshore’s co-founder, in an e-mail to members announcing the endorsement.

Little wrote to Gonzalez to thank Bayshore’s members, saying that the group’s support “means
so much to our team...You moved our conservative base from 29% in 2008 to 46% in 2010. I
know you can do it again. It is my sincere honor and privilege to work side by side with you as
you take control of your government.”

Headquartered in Middletown, Bayshore backed Little in 2010, propelling her to an upset
primary victory over the well-financed Diane Gooch, who had received the Monmouth County
Republican line in the 2010 primary. Then, aided by the many Tea Party Groups' grass roots
efforts, Little made the race the closest election faced by incumbent Democrat Frank Pallone
since 1992.

Although the West Jersey Tea Party is based outside of the Sixth District in Medford, New
Jersey, the group pledged to work with Little’s campaign to help elect her. In announcing their
endorsements, which also included two other candidates running for other offices, West Jersey
vice president Keith Peacock said, “Each of these candidates represent the values that
conservatives hold as most important…small government, free market capitalism and fiscal
responsibility. We believe that by sending these people to Congress we can help restore the
nation to the right course and reclaim the beacon of freedom of the world.” Little publicly
thanked the West Jersey Tea Party for its support on her campaign’s Facebook
page, www.facebook.com/annalittleforcongress.

The Independence Hall Tea Party PAC is associated with the Independence Hall Tea Party
Association, a tri-state regional Tea Party group covering New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and
Delaware. The group’s PAC, or political action committee, is the only federally registered Tea
Party PAC in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, or Delaware. Bill Green, the Vice President of the
Independence PAC’s New Jersey region, called Little a “Reagan Republican,” continuing that,
“Little waged an impressive campaign against incumbent Congressman Frank Pallone. We think
she can finish the job by defeating him in 2012. Her theme, 'Little government is good
government' perfectly matches our Tea Party philosophy.”

Little’s rival in the Republican primary has yet to receive formal support from any Tea Party
organization.

Anna C. Little, 6th District Congressional Candidate, Receives the Endorsement of the Conservative Party of New Jersey

littleadmin — Mon, 09 Jul 2012 19:20:15 +0000

KEYPORT, NJ – On Thursday, May 17, the Conservative Party of New Jersey announced its
endorsement of Anna Little in the race for the Sixth Congressional District seat. This comes on
the heels of endorsements by several New Jersey Tea Parties.

On Tuesday, Richard S. Nodine, the Executive Director of the Conservative Party of New Jersey
visited a strategy meeting for the Little Campaign in Keyport, to personally deliver his group’s
endorsement to Little. In the presence of 25 campaign volunteers, Little signed the Conservative
Party’s Candidate Pledge. The pledge’s ten planks include strictly adhering to the U.S.
Constitution, supporting limited government, espousing lower federal deficits and a smaller
national debt, backing lower taxes, and championing the Right to Life. Nodine told Little and her
supporters that he has “all the confidence that Anna will win.”

In a press release issued by the Conservative Party of New Jersey announcing the endorsement
of Little, Nodine said, “Anna’s career is one of hard work and a dedication to the State of New
Jersey, all while being a dedicated wife and mom, raising three children. Her strong business and
leadership experiences, and her dedication to our Conservative Pledge are what our State and our
Nation need at this critical time in history.”

Nodine believes that Little understands “that repealing and deregulation are needed to unleash
American Exceptionalism, create jobs, and protect the sovereignty of The United States.”
The endorsement of Little by the Conservative Party of New Jersey comes after Little recently
received the endorsements of four New Jersey Tea Party groups. In mid April, the Monmouth
County Tea Party Coalition endorsed Little. On May 3, the Bayshore Tea Party Group
endorsed Little, followed by the endorsement of the West Jersey Tea Party on May 4. Then on
May 9, the Independence Hall Tea Party PAC announced its endorsement of Little.
