Rob Maness, a Retired U.S. Air Force Colonel, has thrown his
hat in the ring against Landrieu, who is seeking re-election, and the already
announced Congressman Bill Cassidy (R-Baton Rouge).
Maness is a Constitutional Conservative and was an
Operations Officer for the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the Pentagon during 9/11.
For his military service, he was awarded the Bronze Star and Air Medal.
Maness is stressing several issues which he feels
differentiate himself from Cassidy and Landrieu including:
-
Protecting and Defending Individual Liberty and
Constitutional Rights
-
Protecting 2nd Amendment Rights
-
Immigration Reform and Border Security
-
Energy Independence
-
Education Reform and eliminating Common Core
standards
-
Repealing the Obama/Landrieu Government
Healthcare Takeover
Maness and his wife Candy are residents of Madisonville.
