Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) Endorses Dr. Rich McCormick for the U.S. House of Representatives

ATLANTA – Americans for Prosperity Action Georgia (AFP Action GA) announced today its endorsement of Dr. Rich McCormick to Georgia’s 6th Congressional District.

AFP Action will leverage a wide range of tactics, including the country’s largest grassroots outreach and mobilization, a full-time dedicated staff, and trained volunteers to educate and mobilize voters to support endorsed candidates.

During the 2020 election cycle, AFP Action supported candidates nationwide with more than 8.5 million telephone calls, 1.5 million door knocks, and more than 49 million pieces of mail. AFP Action has unmatched direct voter outreach capability supported by a world-class data operation.

“Dr. Rich McCormick will be a champion in Congress on the issues that matter most to Georgians,” said AFP Action Georgia Senior Advisor Stephen Allison.

“His experience as a medical doctor will provide a much-needed dose of know-how to federal health care policy to improve personal health care options and increase the quality of care,” he said. “And he will be a strong voice for spending and tax policies that shield American from the ravages of inflation. AFP Action Georgia is proud to endorse his candidacy.”
