Mike Lynch Announces Bid for Colorado's 4th Congressional District, Promising Strong Conservative Values and a Commitment to the People Who Live There

Today, Colorado House Minority Leader Mike Lynch officially declared his candidacy for the Republican nomination for U.S. Representative from Colorado's 4th Congressional District.

Lynch, who currently serves Larimer and Weld Counties in the Colorado House of Representatives is a local business owner and Army veteran. He has a long-standing reputation as a conservative leader ready to fight for the hardworking families and rural Coloradans who form the true backbone of our great state.

In a press release announcing his bid, Lynch emphasized the importance of having a strong voice in Washington that truly understands the exceptionalism of Colorado and embraces the unwavering conservative values that define our state's identity.

With U.S. Rep. Ken Buck's decision not to seek re-election, Lynch's announcement adds momentum to the race, with a total of nine declared candidates now vying for the Republican nomination.

"Coloradans deserve a representative who has been tested and persevered, someone who understands our western heritage and is committed to tackling the unique challenges we face during these trying times in the United States," Lynch stated.

Lynch's qualifications and educational background make him a standout candidate. As a cadet at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, he earned a bachelor's degree in systems engineering and legal studies. He later obtained a master's degree in public administration from the University of Colorado, further solidifying his expertise in leadership and governance.

When elected, Lynch's primary objectives will include addressing national security concerns. He has pledged to tackle border security issues, combat the migration of terrorists, the smuggling of drugs, and the sex trafficking of migrant children.

Lynch recognizes the urgent threat posed by the drug crisis, particularly the deadly substance fentanyl, which has devastating effects on families and communities. As a father and a leader, he is determined to put an end to this crisis and protect the people of Colorado and our nation from this ever-increasing evil threat.

Lynch's commitment to conservative values also extends to his vision for smaller government, lower taxes, and fiscal responsibility.

His website emphasizes the need for a "voice of reason" that will advocate for the needs of everyday Americans. He promises to support fairness and a lack of bias in upholding the rule of law, ensuring that justice is blind and impartial.

Lynch's campaign website also outlines his support for improving veterans care, defending the 2nd Amendment, and making strategic investments in the military to maintain the United States' foreign policy position and global peacekeeping role.
