WASHINGTON, Sept. 28 /PRNewswire/ -- Family Research Council (FRC)
President Tony Perkins released the following statement after House Speaker
Dennis Hastert (R-IL) announced that House Whip Roy Blunt (R-MO) would
temporarily take over Congressman Tom DeLay's duties as House Majority Leader.
"I am confident that House Whip Roy Blunt will continue Tom DeLay's
efforts to move forward with pro-family public policies which drove turnout
among values voters in the last election. Congressman Blunt has been a
recipient of Family Research Council's 'True Blue Award' which is given to
members of Congress who have consistently voted pro-life and pro-family.

amendment protecting marriage, a fetal pain bill and a ban on human cloning."
