Derrick Van Orden’s campaign announced Thursday morning that he received key Republican endorsements from House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Minority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA), and the Wisconsin Republican Congressional Caucus.
Van Orden announced he received these key endorsements as he plans to challenge vulnerable Democrat Rep. Ron Kind (D-WI) and unseat him in the midterm elections and help the Republicans reclaim the majority in the House of Representatives.
McCarthy said he’s “delighted to join Wisconsin’s Republican Congressional Delegation and endorse Derrick Van Orden for Congress.” He continued, saying Van Orden has proven himself to be a leader after he “bravely served our country as a decorated U.S. Navy SEAL.”

L to R: Lausch and Milhiser
Illinois’ Congressional Delegation is unhappy with the current president over some recent terminations. The Chicago Sun-Times reports that President Joe Biden will ask for the resignation of nearly all Donald Trump-appointed U.S. attorneys, including the Chicago-based John Lausch and John Milhiser based in Springfield. Lausch has been heading the investigation in Illinois into the ComEd patronage and bribery scheme that has ensnared former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan and several of his associates.

th District Congresswoman Mary Miller, and Senators Tammy Duckworth and Dick Durbin have all expressed their displeasure with the announcement, wanting to keep Lausch on the job. U.S. attorneys are nominated by a president, subject to Senate confirmation. Lausch received unanimous bi-partisan approval in the Senate in November 2017.
