January 6, 2010…Barrington, Ill.  Tomorrow, at the Lake County Republican Party Forum, Dirk W. Beveridge (48), Republican candidate for the 8th Congressional District, will formally announce endorsements he has earned from a coalition of job creators, industry leaders and entrepreneurs.

“Dirk understands business issues and job creation,” explains Ron Bullock, Chairman and Owner, Bison Gear & Engineering Corp. and 2009 Chair, Illinois Manufacturers Association. “Our current Representative doesn’t and we can change that. Dirk Beveridge will represent the Eighth District with common-sense conservative values.”

Beveridge owns and operates a successful small business based in Barrington, Ill., serving national companies who desire growth, expansion and dynamic change.

“I believe Dirk Beveridge knows what it takes to build economies and direct change, effectively, the private sector way,” comments Richard Pepper, Chairman, The Pepper Companies, Inc.

Beveridge’s Job Creators’ Endorsement coalition is represented by entrepreneurs and industry leaders –together, creating thousands of Illinois jobs.

“This is a pivotal stamp of approval from an impressive list of business leaders and job creators,” announced Beveridge.  “This is a strong message to voters that the Beveridge Campaign has the right plan for getting our economy back on track and back in the hands of hard-working Americans.   I am honored and grateful for the support of private sector leadership. I will work with them and other business leaders as we deliver a strong conservative voice for our district and our nation to Washington.”

Dirk was endorsed last month by the Cuba Township Republican Committee and was chosen as a “preferred candidate” by the Schaumburg Township Republican Organization.

“I am convinced that Dirk Beveridge can beat Melissa Bean and has what it takes to get the job done right in Washington,” explained Andrew Berlin, Chairman & CEO, Berlin Packaging and recipient, Entrepreneurship Hall of Fame.  “Dirk is a proven leader; he knows how to be effective and how to make a real difference.  I know when he is in Washington, he will act on his convictions and a strong moral compass to restore our American dream.”

Reinforcing Dirk Beveridge’s effective leadership, the Beveridge Campaign will soon announce their endorsement roundtables from the Healthcare sector and from the national security sector.

  1. This is a donor list, not and endorsement list. Every candidate that raises funds can come up with this. What a desperate reach.

  2. I am very impressed with this endorsement. Bean represents herself as a moderate yet voted for Cap and Trade. She also helped push through a health care bill which will hurt and harm small businesses which are the lifeblood of our economy.

  3. I’m glad I located this weblog, I couldnt discover any info on this subject prior to. I also manage a site and if you’re ever interested in doing some guest writing for me if possible feel free to let me know, i’m always look for people to check out my blog. Please stop by and leave a comment sometime!

  4. Is Beveridge running for Congress or not?? Can’t find his website–comes up as OOPS. When I find candidate comparison charts, it appears that Beveridge has no opinions whatsoever (e.g., amnesty).
    HELLO, ILLINOIS GOP: WHAT KIND OF CAMPAIGN IS HE RUNNING? HE’S ALL BUT INVISIBLE ON THE NET. NOT GOOD. Have you already given up?
