Congressman Porter Joins the
Pakistan Caucus
Congressman
Jon Porter, a Republican representing the 3rd district of
Nevada, has joined the Congressional Pakistan Caucus to show
his support for Pakistani Americans and for the people of
Pakistan. Jon C. Porter has made community service a lifetime
commitment. He is an experienced community leader who has
brought his commonsense approach to Washington D.C. Congressman
Porter serves on the House Education and Workforce Committee.
Additionally, Congressman Porter serves on the House Transportation
and Infrastructure Committee.
In the 109th Congress, Congressman Porter secured a seat on
the House Government Reform Committee and became Chairman
of the Federal Workforce and Agency Organization Subcommittee.
The Government Reform Committee’s primary purpose is
to study government activities at all levels, and improve
the way our government does business.
Congressman Porter first showed his support to the people
of Pakistan by attending the Breakfast Reception on the Day
on the Hill, and expressed his concern and deep sympathy with
the people of Pakistan.
The Chair of PAL-C’s Caucus Membership Committee, Mr.
Rehman Jinnah, attributes the success of the Caucus to its
"bi-partisan composition, almost equally Democrat and
Republican. The Pakistan Caucus is a means to an extremely
important end: to make Pakistan the strongest it can be with
widespread support from the US." In the year 2006, as
Chair, Mr. Jinnah has committed himself to reach the goal
of 100 members of the Congress on the Caucus.
