Sen. Ossoff: “Every national political reporter in the country should be putting that question to these two candidates tonight. They want to be candidates for the U.S. Senate? Let’s see them prove to the people of Georgia once again, because they’re pro-war, they’re pro-tariff, they’re pro-cutting health care. Let’s find out where they stand on the crooked ballroom and the insurrectionist slush fund.”
Atlanta, Ga. — Senator Jon Ossoff joined Lawrence O’Donell on MS NOW’s The Last Word, “urging reporters last night to get his Republican opponents on the record about ‘the crooked ballroom and the insurrectionist slush fund’”.
As Collins and Dooley head to a runoff on June 16th and continue to make themselves terminally inseparable from the toxic President, Georgians deserve to know exactly where they stand on key issues.
“I am running in Georgia against two Trump lackeys who, you can rest assured as they race for the President’s approval, would be voting for this crooked ballroom and this insurrectionist slush fund. And in fact, every national political reporter in the country should be putting that question to these two candidates tonight. They want to be candidates for the U.S. Senate? Let’s see them prove to the people of Georgia once again, because they’re pro-war, they’re pro-tariff, they’re pro-cutting health care. Let’s find out where they stand on the crooked ballroom and the insurrectionist slush fund. And I want folks to understand the stakes of this race here in Georgia. As you said, I am the only Democratic Senator running for re-election in a state that Donald Trump won, and I’m facing down two Trump loyalists. The GOP will spend hundreds of millions of dollars to try to defeat me in the toughest battleground state in the country. And there is no path back to the majority, there is no path back to stopping Donald Trump in the Senate without winning in Georgia,” said Sen. Ossoff.
