First Lady Laura Bush

"Chris cares deeply about West Virginians and the people of the First District. He's committed to improving your state's health-care system, so that more West Virginia families will have access to good medical treatment. In Congress, Chris will be especially dedicated to West Virginia's senior citizens. He'll protect retirees' benefits, and help West Virginia seniors enjoy the access to low-cost medications, and the peace of mind provided by the Medicare prescription-drug coverage plan."

 House Majority Whip Roy Blunt (MO-7)

 “Chris Wakim has a proven record of service to his country as a veteran and to his constituents as a State Delegate. Chris’ efforts to reform the broken medical liability system in order to improve health care for West Virginia families, to create jobs in West Virginia through tax reforms, and his pro-life, pro-Second Amendment stances show that Chris understands what the people in the First District value the most. He will make a fantastic Congressman and I look forward to working with him."

                          Senator John McCain (AZ)

"Chris has demonstrated a willingness to take on tough issues and a commitment to public service that will serve West Virginia’s First District very well."
