The Simmons camp tonight rolled out the endorsement of Jonathan Bush, brother of former President George H.W. Bush and son of former Connecticut Senator Prescott Bush.
"Rob understands that 'public office is a public trust.' He will serve his country with honor and distinction as he has for his entire career - as a soldier, CIA official, teacher, and elected representative. Rob is motivated not by ambition, but by the desire to continue his life of service on behalf of the people and the country he loves,'' Jonathan Bush wrote.
"My family has always believed in service above self, a value that was instilled by my father,'' Jonathan Bush wrote in a letter to delegates released tonight, at the annual GOP fundraiser named for Prescott Bush.
Jonathan Bush lives in Killingworth and is a delegate to the upcoming GOP convention.
