DES MOINES – U.S. Senator Sam Brownback today announced his Iowa Faith and Family Leadership Committee.

"Over the past ten years, no one has done more in Congress to protect human life, traditional marriage and the American family than Sam Brownback," said former Iowa State Representative and pro-family leader Chuck Hurley, who will chair the committee. "Born and raised on a small family farm, Sam understands Iowa's conservative, Midwestern values. For conservatives looking for a champion in 2008, the choice is clear: Sam Brownback."

"I have been thrilled with the enthusiastic support of Iowans who share my goal to rebuild the family and renew the culture," added Brownback. "I have been blessed with the opportunity to carry forward the life, family and faith battles in Congress over the last decade. With the help of my Iowa Faith and Family Committee and the support of like-minded citizens across America, as president I will protect marriage and the family, preserve the role of faith in the public square, promote a culture that respects human life and appoint the Supreme Court Justice who will overturn Roe v. Wade."

The members of Brownback's Faith and Family Leadership Committee joined in appreciation of Brownback's consistent record and demonstrated leadership in promoting a culture that celebrates and respects life, the family, faith and freedom.
