That is why the Class of 2010 &#8211; Compact with America, that I developed with another candidate &#8211; Liz Lauber from Missouri &#8211; is so important.  It not only demonstrates my commitment to these reforms but also is an attempt to provide a platform that like-minded candidates can gather around.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Statement from Phil Troyer, Republican candidate in the 2010 primary for the 3rd District Congressional seat: Troyer Drawing Attention from National Media Related Images:<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1615],"tags":[2181,2149],"class_list":["post-9908","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-2010-election-cycle","tag-2010-us-congressional-district-3-race","tag-phil-troyer"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.3 -
