Tim Schmidt, President and CEO of Delta Defense and  founder of the US Concealed Carry Association, has endorsed Iraqi Freedom  veteran Jesse Kremer for the 59th Assembly District seat being vacated by Rep. Dan LeMahieu.

Kewaskum, Wisconsin, April 25, 2014: Jesse Kremer, candidate for the 59th Assembly seat, a district that stretches from Hartford to New Holstein, has received the full endorsement of Tim Schmidt, President and CEO of Delta Defense LLC and founder of the US Concealed Carry Association (USCCA). Mr. Schmidt began the company in 2003 as a magazine subscription service, is now the largest concealed carry organization in America, and is a rapidly growing Wisconsin employer.

Tim Schmidt has issued the following statement regarding Kremer, “I support Jesse and his desire to protect and preserve all of our constitutionally guaranteed liberties, including our 2nd Amendment rights.  Jesse understands the meaning of freedom and what true service is.  A month before September 11, Jesse was promoted to the position of captain at an airline in Milwaukee.  Three weeks after the attacks on our nation, he began a family when he married his wife Janet.  In light of these life changing events, Jesse felt compelled to defend his family, his country, and his occupation by joining the Wisconsin National Guard.  Jesse deployed oversees to serve with the first wave of soldiers in Operation Iraqi Freedom.  In my honest opinion, I believe that Jesse has been trained and raised with a strong sense of integrity and is a highly ethical individual.  If given the opportunity, Jesse will be a strong conservative legislator and a voice of reason for the people of the 59th Assembly District.”
