With the conclusion of the Speaker election for the 118th Congress, Rep.-elect Eli Crane (R-AZ) released the below statement:
“Following the election, while deals were being made in Washington, I traveled across the district talking to the people that I will now represent. I will never apologize for keeping my promises to the residents of Arizona’s 2nd district.
“I’ve been deployed five times to defend our country and the values we stand for.
“No amount of pressure from Washington will ever get me to fold on that mission.
“Speaker McCarthy, I look forward to serving in the 118th Congress.”
