Whereas, U.S. Senator Jim DeMint has upheld conservative values in the U.S. Senate since he was elected in 2004; and

Whereas, Senator DeMint has stood against “earmarks” on the federal level; and

Whereas, Senator DeMint has stood against the pork-laden, taxpayer-funded so-called “stimulus” bills on the federal level; and

Whereas, Senator DeMint has continued to support traditional family values;

Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Aiken County Republican Party commends U.S. Senator Jim DeMint for his courageous stands in the U.S. Senate in favor of conservative values.

Be it further resolved that a copy of this resolution is to be forwarded to U.S. Senator Jim DeMint in Washington, DC.
