FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 20 2010 Conservative radio giant Mark Levin endorses Mike Lee for U.S. Senate Author of “Liberty and Tyranny” says Mike Lee is the strongest conservative Alpine, UT, April 20, 2010 — On his nationally syndicated radio program, conservative talk-show host Mark Levin endorsed Mike Lee saying, “By all accounts Senator Bennett is a very nice man, but he is part of the problem. He [Senator Bennett] is very, very moderate. The strongest conservative is Mike Lee. The strongest challenger is Mike Lee. If we can send Mike Lee [and other constitutional conservatives] to Wash- ington they will really shake things up. We must get these constitutionalists elected.” Responding to Levin’s endorsement Mike Lee stated, “It is an honor to have a conservative like Mark Levin endorse my candidacy. We share the view that that the government is too big, too expensive and too intru- sive in our lives. We also hold the philosophy that the only way forward for America is to return to the lim- ited government found in the Constitution.” About Mike Lee: An attorney from Alpine, Utah, Mike has spent his career helping individuals and organizations get overreaching government regulations and control out of their lives and businesses. A life- time student of the Constitution, he graduated from the Brigham Young University Law School. Mike served as a law clerk to Judge Dee Benson of the U.S. District Court for the District of Utah and later spent time as General Counsel to Governor Jon Huntsman. Mike has twice served as a law clerk to current Su- preme Court Justice Samuel Alito. He first clerked for the solidly conservative jurist at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit, then was asked to return as a clerk during Justice Alito’s important first year on the bench of the U.S. Supreme Court. Mike has also held positions in private practice, and is currently a partner with the Washington, D.C.-based law firm of Howrey LLP. His understanding of the Constitution and law have made him a valuable resource for individuals and organizations throughout the country.
