| In response to news that ‘MAGA Mike’ Beltran was added to the NRCC’s “MAGA Majority,” DCCC spokesperson Anna Elsasser released the following statement:
“Consider it confirmed: Mike Beltran is an extremist who will always put Donald Trump and his national party bosses ahead of Floridians. Beltran was Republican leaders’ second choice, and now they’re stuck fighting a losing battle in a dummymandered seat that’s already backfiring. Voters already know Beltran’s extremism and long record of opposing efforts to lower health care and housing costs while Floridians struggled to make ends meet. Now, he wants to bring that same unpopular record to Washington and rubber stamp an agenda that’s jacking up the cost of everything. Beltran is only running to be a yes-man for the most extreme voices in his party, and he will lose to Kathy Castor in November because of it.”
