Congressman Ackerman's Statement on his Overwhelming Victory

I am honored and humbled to have been re-elected by such an extraordinary margin, especially in spite of the national tidal wave. It is gratifying that despite the national anti-incumbent mood, the voters in our district decided to return me to Washington for the fifteenth consecutive time. I greatly appreciate the confidence they have in me for the things that we have been able to do together. But we have a lot more work to do. I’m not satisfied and I’m not resting. We must help rebuild the economy both in our community and throughout the country. We must do all we can to help create and retain jobs and spur economic growth. Our nation is in challenging times, and we must forge ahead together.
