Rounds Receives “Award for Conservative Achievement” from American Conservative Union

WASHINGTON—U.S. Sen. Mike Rounds (R-S.D.) this week received an “Award for Conservative Achievement” from the American Conservative Union (ACU) for consistently voting to uphold conservative principles.

“We commend Senator Rounds for his support of conservative values, and applaud his votes to confirm conservatives such as Mick Mulvaney, Besty DeVos and Ajit Pai,” said Matt Schlapp, Chairman of the ACU. “His votes to pass comprehensive tax reform, repeal Obamacare, and confirm true conservatives are key examples of his leadership.”

“Over the past 15 months, we’ve made significant progress enacting conservative principles that invite freedom and individual liberty,” said Rounds. “We’ve passed historic tax cuts, rolled back overreaching regulations and we’ve put conservative, fair-minded judges on the bench. I’m pleased to join my colleagues in achieving these successes and look forward to continuing to advance conservative principles for the American people.”
