TDP STATEMENT ON RICK PERRY “THE RESPONSE” SUMMIT
June 6th, 2011

Texas Democratic Party Spokeswoman Kirsten Gray issued the following statement regarding Gov. Perry hosting an American Family Association prayer summit in Houston later this summer:

“Governor Perry is the last person who should be talking about what’s right for our country. When campaigning, he claims he will fully fund our schools, protect the elderly and balance the budget, but the deficit state GOP budget broke every one of those promises. A budget is a moral document about our priorities, but it’s obvious the Governor is a shameless opportunist whose real priority is whatever furthers his own career ambitions.”
