Chabot's statement on the fundraiser

Congressman Chabot Announces Postponement of
First Lady Event

Cincinnati – Congressman Steve Chabot announced today that he has postponed a scheduled event with First Lady Laura Bush out of respect to the family of Marine Cpl. Timothy Roos. Congressman Chabot was previously scheduled to host a brunch with Mrs. Bush at 10:00 a.m. on Friday at the Cincinnati Museum Center. The decision to postpone the event was made after learning that the Mass of Christian Burial for Cpl. Roos was also scheduled for Friday morning.

"I truly believe that our hearts and prayers should be with Timothy Roos and his family during this difficult time," said Chabot. "I did not want our event with the First Lady to distract in any way from the tribute to Corporal Roos and his heroic service to our country."

Chabot said that the event with First Lady Laura Bush would be re-scheduled for a later date.
