Gibbs Honored by United Conservatives of Ohio as Watchdog of the Treasury

“Dedication to fiscal responsibility” earns prestigious award

 

(Columbus) – State Senator Bob Gibbs was named a Watchdog of the Treasury on Wednesday by the United Conservatives of Ohio. The group praised Gibbs for his “dedication to fiscal responsibility” and “strong conservative voting record” in presenting him with the award. Gibbs is a candidate to unseat Zack Space this year in Ohio’s 18th Congressional District.

 

“With more than three decades of business experience, Senator Gibbs understands the importance of smart fiscal management, whether you are a company trying to make payroll or state government,” a statement released by the Ohio Senate stated after Wednesday’s announcement, adding “he has championed the responsible use of taxpayer dollars and supported public policy that works to limit government, keep taxes low and foster a climate in Ohio that encourages investment and job growth.”

 

Gibbs said he was pleased to be recognized by the UCO, an organization that advocates public policy that promotes free enterprise, low taxes and greater efficiency in government. “It is those conservative principles that will lead us out of the mess we’re in,” noted Gibbs, who vowed to take the fight against wasteful spending to Washington. 

 

“The days of trillion dollar spending sprees and leveraging our future by borrowing more and more have got to end,” said Gibbs. “I’m honored by the title of ‘Watchdog’ – it’s exactly the reputation I intend to bring with me to Washington, where restraint is badly needed,” he added. 

   

Gibbs also received the award in 2004 and 2006.
