&lt;p&gt;Marty Ozinga usually greets constituents with a handshake, but spent Tuesday greeting future voters with a pat on the head.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;During a campaign swing in Ottawa, the Republican from Homer Glen stopped at Easter Seals of La Salle and Bureau Counties to tour day care and developmental education facilities and to learn how the agency derives funding.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title> CLEAR CHOICE AWAITS VOTERS IN ILLINOIS&#039; 11TH CONGRESSIONAL RACE</title>
 <link>http://www.martyozinga.com/news/clear-choice-awaits-voters-in-illinois-11th-congressional-race</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;By Fran Eaton&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Traditional values are the foundation of our nation. The stronger families are, the less dependent they are on government-funded programs. The less dependent they are on government programs, the more independent and resourceful they are. And along with that grows appreciation for freedom and liberty and the desire to pass along that freedom to the next generation.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PRINCETON &amp;mdash; Marty Ozinga wants to be known for his six sons, 10 grandchildren (with one more on the way) and his business skills, but there&amp;rsquo;s one thing he doesn&amp;rsquo;t want to be known for.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;ldquo;I&amp;rsquo;m not a politician,&amp;rdquo; he said on a campaign trip to Princeton Monday.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>ELECTION &#039;08: OZINGA TOURS GRAND RIDGE WIND FARM</title>
 <link>http://www.martyozinga.com/news/election-08-ozinga-tours-grand-ridge-wind-farm</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;Martin Ozinga III, a Homer Glen Republican and candidate for U.S. House in the 11th Congressional District, toured the Grand Ridge Wind Farm Tuesday and called for the renewal of the Production Tax Credit for renewable energy development and to tout the economic, environmental and security benefits of wind energy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;Congress needs to do more to encourage the development of wind energy,&amp;quot; Ozinga said in prepared remarks. &amp;quot;The politicians in Washington need to stop bickering, get a comprehensive energy bill passed and include the renewal of the PTC in that bill.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>OZINGA BACKS RETURN OF RENEWABLE ENERGY CREDIT</title>
 <link>http://www.martyozinga.com/news/ozinga-backs-return-of-renewable-energy-credit</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;By CATHERINE HOPKINS&lt;br /&gt;OF THE JOURNAL STAR&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;RANSOM &amp;mdash;Eleventh Congressional District candidate Marty Ozinga called Tuesday for the renewal of the production tax credit for renewable energy development.
&lt;p&gt;&amp;quot;The government needs to get serious about our energy needs,&amp;quot; Ozinga said at the Grand Ridge Wind Farm in LaSalle County. &amp;quot;We&#039;ve had political gridlock on the topic, and we need to work together for solutions.&amp;quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;RANSOM -- When Marty Ozinga stepped out of the truck at a wind farm in rural LaSalle County, his first question centered not around energy or the environmental impact.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Instead, it was about how much concrete made up the foundation.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>THREE INNOVATIVE REPUBLICANS RUNNING FOR CONGRESS</title>
 <link>http://www.martyozinga.com/news/three-innovative-republicans-running-for-congress</link>
 <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;em&gt;by &lt;/em&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.thenextright.com/blog/3&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;Patrick Ruffini&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Next Right // thenextright.com&lt;br type=&quot;_moz&quot; /&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As the GOP at the national level seems to fall into a state of self-inflicted depression, and particularly about its prospects online, it&#039;s good to see some GOP Congressional candidates who can actually think outside the box. Three in particular have broken out with next generation online presences.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>OZINGA CLOSING IN ON CASH GAP</title>
 <link>http://www.martyozinga.com/news/ozinga-closing-in-on-cash-gap</link>
 <description>&lt;div class=&quot;byline&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;     By Patrick Ferrell, Sun-Times News Group&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Concrete magnate Marty Ozinga III raised more funds during the second quarter than his Democrat opponent, state Sen. Debbie Halvorson, in their 11th Congressional District race.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But at least for now, Halvorson, of Crete, still holds a cash-on-hand advantage over Ozinga, the Republican candidate who so far has put only $70,000 of his cash into the race but has not ruled out donating more to bridge the gap.&lt;/p&gt;
