Dear Fellow Republican,
My primary goal in seeking the role of Speaker of the House is to foster an environment of trust and integrity within the Republican House caucus, where we can work collaboratively to best serve our constituents and the citizens of our state.
Trust: Trust is fundamental to an effective working relationship. As your leader, I am committed to ensuring that my actions align with my words. I pledge to be consistent, reliable, and transparent, so you can have faith in my leadership.
Integrity: Our constituents deserve representatives who prioritize the public good over special and personal interests. I will work diligently to address any perceptions or instances of impropriety or favoritism, often called “pay-to-play” and “the swamp.” We must uphold the highest ethical standards, and I vow to lead by example.
My leadership team and I will have a true open door policy, a welcoming environment within our caucus. It is crucial we cultivate unity and collaboration rather than creating division. We will work together to decide our priorities in a bottom-up approach rather than top-down. And we will never orchestrate House primaries against solid incumbent Republicans because of personality differences. Such actions weaken our Party and leave us vulnerable in the future. As Speaker, my leadership team and I will prioritize an environment where every member’s contribution is valued and acknowledged.
Thank you for being so dedicated to serving our state. I look forward to working alongside you in the coming term to restore trust and integrity to our caucus.
Sincerely,
Representative Len Turcotte
PS: We look forward to seeing everyone on 10/5 at Twombly Gardens. If you haven’t yet, please RSVP at bit.ly/105rsvp or by replying to this email.
