From Club Members
As a former intern for the Club, I can attest to the fact that the staff of the Club for Growth are among the most principled and capable in DC. The Club has been extremely effective in promoting limited government and in the coming years will play an essential role in defining the Republican Party and holding them to their stated principles. It was an honor to have worked with such great people. Keep up the good work!
