Name: Jacqueline Williams Party: Republican Interviewing Agency: Los Angeles Times "It is shameful that the Democratic party appointed a Chair who was not dedicated to the job and brought the committee proceedings to a halt. However, as would be expected of any leader, per the rules, I began the work of moving through legislation that would tackle crime, ban partial-birth abortion, and move forward with a balanced budget amendment in the Constitution. These are measures that most Americans support, and it's disheartening that Democrats - after being wholly inactive in moving any agenda forward - are now all of a sudden interested in the committee and ready to vote against the American people."

Fundraiser #4 | Jacky Williams Gala Event, Ambassador Hotel Targeting: Wealthy donors; wine, beer and liquor producers, distributors, and wholesalers; Liquor store owners; Businesspeople Location: Washington, D.C. “Thank you all, so much, for being here today. This is amazing. Not every day do you get to address some of America’s greatest minds in Wine! [Laughs] Thank you all so much for this opportunity. Each and every one of you have a great impact on this country. The late-night glass of wine after a stressful day, or with your best friends on girl’s night. Naturally, the evening beer after a man’s hard day’s work. You’ve captured a key piece the American middle-class life - literally. And that is why it’s important for me to be here today. When I decide to run for president, I will stand up for you and the issues you care about so that you can continue to be a staple of middle-class life, every step of the way! I will work every day to tear down the barriers that get in the way of starting businesses. I will offer business tax credits to anyone who recently opened up a firm or a street-corner store. If you're contributing to the culture of our country, you can get support from your government. Now, I hope the liquor encouragement among consumers is modest-intake. [Laughs] Nevertheless, it's not about personal values, it's about free-market principles. Its about the freedom of free-enterprise - which burdensome regulations and unneccessarily excessive taxes get in the way. I won't let that happen, if you stand by me. Right now, before the committee I am currently the Ranking Member of, there’s a piece of legislation called the “Alcoholic Beverage Labelling Act”. It would be another regulatory addition to our many layers of government intervention - and let me tell you, I’ve opposed it when it was introduced, I am on the record as a vote against it right now, and I will oppose it in the future! I will not impose burdening regulatory requirements on any of your businesses as long as I am in power. I will not impose stringent violations as this proposed law seeks to do. Not now, not ever! Additionally, I will propose any law that raises Alcohol taxes. In fact, I will seek legislation that will prohibit states from imposing taxes of Alcoholic beverages. I will fight against states who have passed outright bans on the consumption of Alcohol for particular age groups in the courts and seek to repeal the 1984 National Minimum Drinking Age Act that outlaws the purchase of Alcohol for young adults between the ages of 18-21. I know how much this industry would value that age group back and I will do everything I can to restore it for this industry. I don’t see the big hoopla. As long as our children, 18 and below, are not consuming, there’s no moral indignity in drinking a nice cold beer while you watch Sunday Night Football with a party of friends. I want you to know that I am your ally and I will fight for you. I hope that you will fight for me. Thank you all, God bless you, and God bless your contributions to this impending campaign."

"Jacky Williams has shown a toughness in defending the values of the nation and she's one of the best choices to lead this country over the next four years. I think it's fair to say that I am ready for Lady Jacky," Representative Montbatten said. Montbatten has served America honorably in the United States Air Force, serving in Vietnam, and later as a State Senator and the recently-elected United States Representative. As Lady Jacky decides whether or not to run for President, more and more support continues to pour in, as Republican officials encourage her to run for President. Lady Jacky announced the formation of a presidential exploratory committee in a statement released recently. She is a former prosecutor and decade-long Representative of California's 45th Congressional District. Additionally, Lady Jacky is the First Lady of Calvary Church in San Diego.
