Anna Little: Pallone’s Dereliction of Duty Contributed to Gulf Oil Spill
Rigorous oversight could have prevented tragedy


Highlands, NJ- June 22. Republican nominee for congress from New Jersey’s 6th district, Highlands Mayor Anna Little, today called upon Congressman Frank Pallone to accept responsibility for his negligence regarding his oversight responsibilities that directly contributed to the Gulf oil spill disaster.

“The recent news that our federal government knew of serious problems with BP’s operations in the Gulf of Mexico as early as February, two months before the explosion that killed 11 people, caused billions of dollars in economic turmoil and unimaginable environmental damage is appalling,” said Little, “As a senior member of the congressional committee with oversight jurisdiction over these operations, Frank Pallone is culpable. It is inexcusable that our government, through the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement and the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, could have and should have prevented this disaster, yet did nothing.”

Pallone, a 22-year incumbent, is a senior member of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce with oversight jurisdiction over exploration, production, storage, supply, marketing, pricing, and regulation of energy resources, including all fossil fuels.

Pallone issued a “tweet” on June 18 saying that he was, “Frustrated w/BP CEO’s nonresponses at yesterday’s hrg - Gulf coast residents & Amer. [People] deserve better explanation for causes of this mess.”

Little agrees, “The American people and the residents of New Jersey’s 6th district do deserve and explanation for the causes of this mess. However, we also deserve an explanation as to why Frank Pallone, his colleagues on the Energy and Commerce Committee as well as the Obama administration’s Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement failed to prevent this ongoing disaster from happening given the information they had in February. It is little wonder that the American people have such a low esteem for Congress.”

Mayor Anna Little Wins Republican Primary in New Jersey’s 6th Congressional District

Highlands, NJ – Mayor Anna Little pulled out a victory in a very close race against Diane Gooch during a contested Republican primary for congressional district 6. Little will go on to challenge 11-term incumbent Frank Pallone. Little won the Monmouth County portion of the district handily pushing her over the top.

“Thank you so very much for your support over these past few months leading up to the primary” said Mayor Anna Little. “The commitment and dedication of so many of you is something about which I am truly incapable of describing. You have shown that the 6th District has some of the finest grassroots volunteers in the Nation,” commented Mayor Little. “I want to thank the tea party groups, for allowing me to represent your voice.”

Among the many organizations and citizens groups supporting Mayor Little were the Bayshore Tea Party Group, Jersey Shore Tea Party, Independence Hall Tea Party PAC, NJ Tea Party, and Middlesex Tea Party. Little also received endorsements from Eagle Forum, the Jewish Voice and Opinion, Mayor Steve Lonegan, Freeholder John Curley, NJ Conservative Party, and NJ Right to Life, among many others.

“This race is not about me. This race is about the people of this district, state and country. This race was about us, and about what is the best course to restore the government to the people of the United States of America,” stated Little.

In a statement about her primary opponent, Mayor Anna Little said, “My opponent, Diane Gooch, believes in the greatness of America. She is an example of the American Dream. She came from nothing and earned her way to prosperity. She has suffered through personal tragedies most of us can only imagine, and she endured. I offer nothing but the most sincere thank you to Diane Gooch, whom I have come to admire for the manner in which she ran her campaign.”

EAGLE FORUM ENDORSES MAYOR ANNA LITTLE FOR CONGRESS

Phyllis Schlafly’s Leading National Pro-life Conservative organization backs Mayor Little for Congress


Highlands, NJ - Congressional candidate for NJ's 6th District, Anna Little Esq, picked up the endorsement of the nationally recognized, pro-family organization and their New Jersey chapter this week. It is only the latest indication that Mayor Little’s campaign is rapidly becoming noticed as a powerhouse and the only one who can beat Frank Pallone in November.

Founded in 1972 by pro-family legend Phyllis Schlafly, Eagle Forum has grown into the Country’s foremost defender of parental rights and has successfully battled the radical feminist agenda for more than 40 years. Eagle Forum has also branched out into being a national voice and protector of U.S. Sovereignty, a leader in promoting American culture and a strong proponent of traditional education. Eagle Forum has found their candidate in New Jersey. Like so many others, that candidate is Mayor Anna Little.

Having already picked up the endorsement of New Jersey Right to Life, Mayor Little has, with the Eagle Forum endorsement, cemented herself as the only truly pro-life candidate for Congress in New Jersey’s 6th District. Mayor Little unapologetically states that life begins at conception and any position she will take on that issue in Washington derives solely from that simple premise.

With Eagle Forum, it is clear that Mayor Little’s underfunded, grassroots candidacy for Congress has become a nationally highlighted race and that Mayor Little has established herself as the only true Conservative running in New Jersey’s 6th District. “I am honored to have earned the endorsement of such an influential organization within the conservative community. I look forward to working with Eagle Forum in the general election.”
