Chairman Rahm Emanuel Statement on Advertisements

(Washington, D.C.) – Congressman Rahm Emanuel, Chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, released the following statement today regarding advertisements by MoveOn.org.

“MoveOn ads targeting the members of Congress Pryce, Chocola, Drake and Nancy Johnson have effectively made the case that there is a close relationship between the contributions they collect and the votes they take in Congress. These ads have clearly made second-tier races into first tier contests.”
