TUCSON -- U.S. Secretary of Labor Elaine Chao came to Tucson today to help drum up support for state Senate President Tim Bee (R-Tucson) - help he needs in his quest to unseat Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-8), the well-funded freshman Democrat.

Chao spoke before a roundtable of business leaders about the strength of the U.S. economy, and the need to contribute to Bee's campaign. According to Chao, media bias makes it imperative that Bee "bypass" news outlets and appeal directly to voters.
