Today, Republican leaders, including the Speaker of the House, joined election deniers like Cleta Mitchell, Ken Cucinelli, and Stephen Miller to propagate phony conspiracy theories in a brazen effort to undermine our election system.
At least a dozen vulnerable House Republicans and GOP challengers have denied the legitimacy of the 2020 election and sided with January 6 insurrectionists who stormed our Capitol as a result of false election theories.
In response, DCCC national press secretary Viet Shelton released the following statement:
“Rather than do anything to help working families, Mike Johnson is spending his time giving those most responsible for undermining our elections a megaphone to lecture people about ‘election integrity’ on the same steps where insurrectionists sought to stop the count of a legitimate election by assaulting those sworn to defend our Capitol.
“Irony is dead.”
