First District Congressman Tim Huelskamp has again been named a Defender of Economic Freedom by fiscal watchdog group, Club for Growth. Huelskamp is one of only two members of the House of Representatives with a 100% score on Club for Growth’s Congressional Scorecard for 2012 and a 100% lifetime rating.

“I am honored to be named the top Congressional ‘Defender of Economic Freedom’ by the Club for Growth,” said Congressman Huelskamp. “Federal spending is out of control and President Obama is doing everything he can to expand federal control over our lives through regulation and tax increases. The people of the First District sent me to Washington to stop this over spending madness. My 100% lifetime fiscal conservative rating is a reflection of that.”
