Engling said too many politicians will only step down if they’re forced, ad that this pledge is a step in the right direction, ensuring fresh voices that represent the people are in positions of responsibility.

Upon signing the pledge, Engling said, “Washington is broken because we keep sending more of the same type of people to Washington, D.C. I believe Congress should be made up of citizen legislators who go to work, fight for their district, then return home and let others take the reins.”

Engling continued, “Like President Trump, I think we need to change the direction of Washington and that bold action requires people who aren’t making a career out of serving in Congress.”

Engling grew up in a supportive family as the second oldest of eight children, learning early what it meant to work hard. He baled hay, detasseled corn, maintained a campground, and ran the quality control lab as the youngest hire at an industry-leading fabrication business. Here in central Indiana, he earned a bachelor’s degree at IUPUI while working full-time in construction and waiting tables. After graduating, he worked for a local HVAC business, but was soon drawn to public service.

Following the Great Recession, Engling worked hard as a volunteer with the Republican Party and on campaigns in Indiana, making the case for limited government and fiscal responsibility.

After helping Republicans secure a majority in Congress, he eagerly answered the call to serve, and started as an intern on Capitol Hill, eventually rising through the ranks to become the Director of Member Services for the Speaker of the House. In that role, he was the Speaker’s delegate with the entire Republican Conference and worked directly with every Republican Representative to guide them and their staff on how to best listen, communicate, and work effectively for their constituents.

Engling met his wife, Kelcey, in Muncie, Ind., and they were married in Cicero; together they have four beautiful children. He earned his master’s degree in defense and strategic studies from the Naval War College in Newport, R.I.
