Berg To Speak at GOP Convention

Posted: Updated:

The Berg for Senate campaign announced today that Rick Berg will address the Republican National Convention next week in Tampa, FL.

The convention schedule has not been released by the party so it is not known when Berg will speak.

The Berg for Senate campaign released this explanation of what the U.S. Representative from North Dakota, running the U.S. Senate will talk about:

As a leader in working toward a smaller and more efficient government, reducing the debt, balancing the budget, and repealing Obamacare, Rick Berg will address the convention on the economic success model of North Dakota and the big differences presented to voters this November between the path President Obama has taken our country or the direction North Dakota has taken, which is a national leader in job growth, economic activity, and domestic energy production.
