Denver, CO -- (ReleaseWire) -- 07/14/2016 --Advocacy group, A Just Cause, announces this Thursday's, July 14, 2016 segment of AJC Radio's "Spotlight on Capitol Hill" will shine the spotlight on Congressman Bob Goodlatte (R - VA) (http://www.AJCRadio.com, 8-10 PM ET).
"Spotlight on Capitol Hill focuses on the importance of supporting our elected officials. Each show is dedicated to talking about, and interviewing with, Congress members concerning the work they are doing to help the American people," explains Lamont Banks, Executive Director of A Just Cause. "Our unique radio segment gives us the opportunity to share their achievements, and discuss significant issues and important legislation with our listeners across America," adds Banks.
According to the Congressman's official website: "As the Sixth District's representative, Bob has worked diligently to protect the freedoms and civil liberties enshrined in the United States Constitution, including private property and Second Amendment rights. He is also focused on securing our borders through immigration reform, creating a pro-growth, pro-jobs economy, increasing access to health care, simplifying the federal tax code, ensuring veterans receive the care they deserve, and lessening the regulatory burden on the American people. Additionally, one of Bob's top legislative initiatives is his constitutional amendment to require a balanced federal budget so that Congress will be forced to control spending."

"Congressman Goodlatte's initiatives for healthcare access, balancing our budget and creating jobs are issues important for all Americans," says Lisa Stewart of A Just Cause. I also believe his involvement with internet and high tech issues are of the utmost importance in this age of technology," concludes Stewart.
"In the 113th Congress, Bob was elected to serve as Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. Bob has been an active member of the Judiciary Committee since arriving in Congress, serving in several leadership positions on the Committee, including Chairman of the Subcommittee on Intellectual Property, Competition, and the Internet in the 112th Congress, and Ranking Member of the Task Force on Judicial Impeachment in the 111th Congress...
