Rick Santorum to Participate in FreedomWorks’ Rising Tide Summit

Former U.S. Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA) has accepted FreedomWorks and Congressman Rod Blum’s (R-IA-1) invitation to attend the Rising Tide Summit on December 5 in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Santorum is the fourth Republican presidential candidate to confirm for the summit jointly hosted by FreedomWorks and Congressman Blum. Dr. Ben Carson, former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina, and Gov. Bobby Jindal (R-LA) have also confirmed.

Following Santorum’s acceptance of the invitation, FreedomWorks Senior Economic Contributor Stephen Moore commented:

“Senator Santorum’s recent endorsement of a flat tax shows that he’s open to pro-growth ideas and we look forward to him being a large part of the conversation. As the number of confirmed candidates continues to grow, the more dynamic and engaging we can expect the Rising Tide Summit to be.”
