Chesterfield, VA, February 29th –
CDR Pete Greenwald, candidate for the 7th Congressional seat in VA, spoke at the Lincoln-Reagan dinner. This article is adapted from that speech.
Greenwald asked his fellow Republicans to join him in the fight to return Virginia RED and out of the BLUE, to become a delegate in support of his candidacy to defeat the liberal congresswoman.
"Together let us stand by our Virginia Republican Creed," said Greenwald, "We believe that faith in God as recognized by our Founding Fathers is essential to the moral fiber of our nation. And that my fellow Republicans, is not a passive faith. No, it is an active faith."
It is that same faith that has led Greenwald on mission at James River High School for the last 11 years growing post millennial patriots who love America, who believe in our founding fathers, and our founding documents - our Declaration and our Constitution. Many of his cadets now understand that our rights are God-given and this sovereign republic exists to secure those rights.
"That active faith calls us to stand for life and against abortion," Greenwald said with great energy, "for the family and against the radical liberal agenda, for the God ordained marriage of one man and one woman, for freedom of religion . . . and against the INTOLERANCE of the left."
On day one in Congress, Greenwald stated that he will sponsor a Personhood Amendment defining life as beginning at the moment of conception. "I am and will remain your pro-life champion," he declared. "I aspire to be the next William Wilberforce for life. He fought his entire life to end slavery in the British Empire and across the civilized world. That is a life well spent. We must end abortion on our watch. It is time. Let us hold high the banner of truth and life for the whole world to see." Greenwald continued with that promise saying that not one more tax payer dollar for Planned Parenthood and every dollar we need for the wall.
On immigration, Greenwald is the only candidate to receive a True Reformer rating from NumbersUSA. Greenwald opposes amnesty and chain migration. He will stand strong in defunding sanctuary cities and mandating e-Verify. Securing the border is 19 years overdue.
"How," Greenwald asked, "can we continue to send our soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines overseas to fight the war on Islamofascism and leave our southern border open? The answer is we cannot."
On the 2nd Amendment, Greenwald says he is not riding the 2A wave. "I am the wave," he continued, "I am a card carrying member of the Virginia Citizens Defense League. You know where I stand."
On taxation, Greenwald challenged the status quo, "It's time for the Fair Tax to set us all free. It's time to end all federal income based taxes and to abolish the IRS. No more April 15th. No more 1040. You control the taxes you pay by the amount you spend. And illegal immigrants and tax-dodgers pay too."
Greenwald closed with the servant leadership motto he imparts to young people every day.
"I will do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit but in humility I will consider others better than myself. I will look out not only to my own interests also to the interests of others."
He welcomed fellow patriots to join his campaign and become a delegate at the convention on April 25th. Please come to a fundraiser on March 15th in Chesterfield.

"Together, Greenwald said, "We can and will defeat the irresponsible, radical Abigail Spanberger."
