U.S. CONGRESSMAN BOB MENENDEZ (D-NJ) ENDORSES GOVERNOR DEAN "As Governor, Howard Dean balanced budgets, just like American families have to balance theirs. He will restore the sound fiscal management we had under President Clinton, returning us to balanced budgets, because he knows we can have no long-term, sustained economic growth with soaring deficits," said Menendez. "As a doctor, he is the true compassionate in this campaign - he doesn't need to profess that, he's lived it as a citizen and public servant." Congressman Menendez is the 3rd- ranking Democrat in the U.S. House of Representatives, the highest ranking Hispanic in Congressional history, and the only Hispanic ever elected to a leadership position in either chamber, by either party. Menendez sat on the select committee on Homeland Security and the Homeland Security Task Force and currently is the Democratic Ranking Member on the House International Relations Committee. "Bob is a true leader in the Congress and I am thrilled to have his support," said Dean. "His advice and support will be helpful throughout the campaign." Menendez will travel with Governor Dean in Iowa on Saturday, December 27 and host a conference call with National and Hispanic media on Tuesday, December 30, 2003 to discuss his endorsement.
