Albuquerque, February 17—The following is a statement from RPNM Chairman Steve Pearce on the passing today of radio icon Rush Limbaugh:
"Rush was a giant in radio and in the conservative movement. He was a true inspiration for everyone who treasures conservative values and principles. He was a voice that carried so many important messages and truths in politics and other arenas. I met Rush at my Congressional Orientation in 2003, and he inspired me and encouraged me to always fight for conservatism and to stand up for our cherished freedoms and American ideals."
