Addressing the announcement that Paul Ryan’s Super PAC, CLF, will spend $1 million to protect career politician and former lobbyist John Faso, DCCC Spokesman Evan Lukaske issued the following statement:
“It’s clear why Speaker Ryan’s Super PAC is propping up career politician and former lobbyist John Faso. Faso voted for the health care repeal bill, which would have increased premiums, gutted protections for pre-existing conditions, imposed an age tax, and thrown millions of hardworking Americans off their health care. Unlike Faso, whose votes are dictated by special interests and campaign donors, the strong and impressive Democratic field here will put this community first.”
Lukaske added, “If CLF’s dismal track record in the PA-18 special election and California primaries is any indication, voters here will have a Democrat representing them next year.”
