Moore Capito on Principles & Values

	Moore Capito on Principles & Values

Faith, family and freedom are nation's foundational values

Moore is running for Governor not only to preserve our West Virginia Values, but expand them for future generations to come. Faith, family and freedom are the foundational values our nation is built on. West Virginia will always be a safe haven for them. Together, we can build a West Virginia that makes our young people proud to call home, that leads our country back to energy independence, and champions freedom to conduct business how you want.

Need to be proud of spiking the football when we have a win

Capito touted his efforts to help recruit Republicans in the last state election, efforts that resulted in the largest Republican supermajority in the state's history. As a result of that margin, he said lawmakers were able to implement the largest set of tax cuts in the state's history. He said he was also proud of his vote in the last session to redesign the state's K-3 education curriculum, passing legislation that puts aides in as many of those classrooms as possible.

Capito is no stranger to politics. But as he hits the campaign trail, he warned listeners not to vote for his name, but his vision.

"Nobody is harder on themselves than West Virginians. We're just starting to feel good about what we're doing in West Virginia. We need to be proud of spiking the football when we have a win. That's what the outside sees -- that we're succeeding because we are succeeding. But if we don't tell our story, nobody is going to hear it and that's why I'm excited to get out and tell our story.
