The U.S. Chamber of Commerce on Thursday endorsed Mike Johanns for election to the Senate.

“As secretary of agriculture and as governor of Nebraska, Mike Johanns has been a forceful advocate for policies that promote economic prosperity and job growth,” said Bill Miller, Chamber senior vice president and political director.

“He has earned the Chamber’s endorsement because we believe he will fight for businesses of every size on important issues like tax relief, trade, health care and regulatory reform.”

Johanns is seeking the Republican Senate nomination in the May 13 primary election.
