Lane Payne announces bid for Congress

I believe there comes a time in everyone’s life when they take an assessment of everything going on around them and say “ENOUGH!”. Well, that time has come for me. As the Pastor of New Life Church in Abbeville, La for almost 20 years and working with our local leaders to help bring about change in people’s lives, it has become apparent to me that something is dreadfully wrong with our nation.
There seems to be a complete disconnect between those who are making decisions in Washington DC and the people who are having to live with those decisions. Elected officials are supposed to be servants of the people who elect them and carry their values into the decision- making process.
Yet year after year, one administration after another, seems to be pushing our society farther and farther away from the values that made this nation like a city on a hill. The policy makers are pushing harder and harder to have complete control over what our children read, what our children believe and what goes into our children’s bodies.
For years, the average American just wanted to be left alone to live their lives the way they wanted—to chase after Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. But with an ever-increasing measure, the government is pushing into our lives and trying to dictate what and how we believe.
It is to the point now that people are willing to start standing up for their God given and Constitutional RIGHTS. We need to make sure that our vote counts for our values. With our vote, we hire those going to Washington and with our vote we FIRE them when they can’t accomplish that for which they were hired.
If you are anything like me, there is no way that you can be satisfied with what we have been receiving from our elected officials. It is time for Fresh Leadership. Someone that will not only stand up to the wrongs being shoved down American’s throats, but also someone who will take Leadership to the decision-making table.
I have a history of working with many people in our community, regardless of voter orientation, race or nationality. I will work with anyone who is working on behalf of helping people reach higher heights for their lives. There is so much to tackle, but hard work is in the DNA of the south.
My wife Brenda and I were married at Suire’s Camp in Erath and just had our 42ndAnniversary this past June. Loyalty is something that runs deep in the deep south, as Family means everything in our Louisiana legacy.
I am declaring my candidacy for US Congressman—La District 3. I ask for your support and I vow to uphold the Constitution that made and keeps America great. Please consider voting for “Lane Payne for Congress”. Check us out at Votelanepayne.com
