I am running for Congress because I love our country. I will promote and defend her against the threats from socialism, career politicians, and out of control taxes and spending, Bansal, who is from Chicago metropolitan area, said announcing his Congressional campaign for the elections to be held next November.
I believe in this great nation, its values and its constitution in the entirety. This great nation has given me a lot, made my dream real. Now I want to work to keep this American dream real...for all of us, Bansal said.
He said his major policy issues are free enterprise, fiscal discipline, family values and a firm foreign policy.
