“We need someone like Barry Hinckley in the Senate who understands that job creation through less interference, not government taxes on small business owners, is the avenue to pursue,” said Chairman Mark G Dosdourian of the Cumberland Republican Town Committee.
“For far too long, Rhode Island has suffered from poor congressional representation from career politicians who left a trail of incompetence behind them. Sheldon Whitehouse is the poster child for more government, higher taxes, and increasing regulation,” said Chairman Mike Napolitano of the Lincoln Republican Town Committee.
Jamestown Republican Town Committee Chair Amy Gallagher remarked, “On behalf of the Jamestown Republican Town Committee, we are unanimous in our support for Barry Hinckley as candidate for U.S. Senate…We ask other GOP Chairs and Committees to stand united with us and support Barry Hinckley as a candidate for U.S. Senate.”
I feel completely confident in stating that Barry Hinckley has the unqualified support of everyone in my town committee. We look forward to helping him earn that kind of support from all the voters of Rhode Island,” said Chairman Mark Zaccaria of the North Kingstown Republican Town Committee.
“These endorsements are a testament to the strength and momentum of our campaign. Our message is clearly resonating,” said Barry Hinckley. “I am honored to be endorsed by these 5 chairmen. The volunteer activism of the Town Committees is a critical component of returning our state and our nation back to prosperity,” Hinckley said.
