DCCC Chairwoman Cheri Bustos released the following statement in response to Congressman Jefferson H. Van Drew’s decision to join the ranks of Congressional Republicans.
“Jeff Van Drew owes the people who worked to elect him an apology for betraying their trust. New Jerseyans will not forget that Jeff Van Drew, in a misguided attempt to save his own political future, went back on his word to serve as a faithful member of the Democratic Caucus furthering the priorities of the American people. And they will vote him out of office if he chooses to run again.”
