Policy Roundtable with Romney for President Policy
Director, Lanhee Chen, Draws Local Business Leaders
On
July 18, we had a great Policy Roundtable event with Romney for President Policy
Director, Lanhee Chen, and many local business leaders and supporters. Lanhee,
a son of Taiwanese immigrants from California, holds four degrees from
Harvard-a bachelor's, a law degree, a master's, and a Ph.D. and is most
commonly described as "brilliant". He understands the value of hard work
because he's done it!
We
were hosted by Mike Jing, President of Cyberdata Technologies in Herndon. We
heard about the great contrast between Romney policies and the failed Obama
policies of the past 3 years that have brought us 16 trillion in debt and
sustained unemployment over 8%. Our NOVA Business Leaders know that it is time
for a turnaround and Mitt Romney is the President we need in 2013 to get the job
done!
