Rep. Amodei Comments on Teixeira; Celebration of Life on Friday

On Wednesday, the Trump-Pence campaign announced that Congressman Mark Amodei will serve as its Nevada state chairman.

“I am happy to welcome Congressman Mark Amodei as chairman of our Nevada campaign. He has resisted the pull of special interests in Washington to fight for change and for the people of Nevada. Recent polls have shown us leading this important battleground state and Congressman Amodei will help us keep that momentum going and help me Make America Great Again,” said Donald Trump.

According to the Trump-Pence campaign, Amodei has campaigned in Nevada multiple times for the Trump-Pence ticket, and they said he was honored to take an official role as the Nevada Chairman for the campaign.

"I’ve seen the damage caused by seven years of the Obama Administration’s influence over health care, national security, foreign relations, energy, and the economy," stated Congressman Amodei. "Not to mention the ever-growing list of crippling federal regulations and the lack of transparency and accountability displayed by our federal agencies. Quite frankly, given a choice between continuing these policies on for the next four years, or trying something else – I pick change. I am pleased to be supportive of our nominee, Donald Trump, and look forward to joining him as we begin the long process of making Washington a problem solver instead of a political quagmire.”
