DCCC Statement on Paul Ryan’s Super PAC Propping Up Career Politician Leonard Lance

Addressing the announcement that Paul Ryan’s Super PAC, CLF, will spend more than $2 million to protect ineffective career politician Leonard Lance, DCCC Spokesman Evan Lukaske issued the following statement:

“It’s clear why Speaker Ryan’s Super PAC is propping up ineffective career politician Rep. Leonard Lance. After all, Lance voted to repeal or undermine the ACA more than 60 times, voted for the health care repeal bill in committee, and has consistently voted against gun safety measures. Thankfully, voters have a better choice this fall. Former Assistant Secretary of State Tom Malinowski has always put country before politics, and in Congress, will put this community before party.”

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.”
