Thursday, April 21, 2011
Conservative activist and Young Republicans Chairman Travis Rowley has been hired as a consultant on the campaign for Republican Senate candidate Barry Hinckley, GoLocalProv has learned.
Hinckley told GoLocalProv last night that he tapped Rowley as part of an effort to reach out to the next generation of Americans who are in their 20s and 30s.
“They’re the ones getting handed the bill for the overspending and they weren’t really given a seat at the table when all the decisions were made—and Travis represents that generation,” Hinckley said. “I want to make sure those people are on my team and know that they have a voice on my campaign.”

Rowley will retain his position as chairman of the Young Republicans. Rowley also is a GoLocalProv MINDSETTER™.
