Today, conservative businessman and Secretary of State Brian Kemp announced that Congressman Jody Hice (GA-10) has officially endorsed his campaign for governor.

“Brian Kemp is a man of character, integrity, and unshakeable faith,” said Congressman Hice. “As Secretary of State, Kemp stood up for our conservative, Georgia values. He took on President Obama and the left. Kemp doesn’t back down or compromise his principles.

“Brian has done a great job of supporting Nathan Deal’s efforts to make Georgia the number one state in which to do business. As Georgia’s next governor, Brian Kemp will continue to advance policies that strengthen our economy, protect our families, and ensure a bright future for our state.

“Kemp will defend our rights, fight for life, and put hardworking Georgians first. I am proud to endorse Brian Kemp for governor and look forward to campaigning with him in the weeks and months ahead.”
