| DCCC spokesperson Madison Andrus released the following statement about Denise Powell’s decisive win in tonight’s debate against MAGA Brinker Harding:
“The decision for voters could not be more clear – while Denise Powell outlined her vision to lower costs for Nebraskans and make life more affordable, MAGA acolyte Brinker Harding showed once again that he will be a rubber-stamp for the extreme policies that are leading to higher costs everywhere from the grocery store to the gas pump to the doctor’s office.
“This November, Nebraskans are going to reject Brinker’s extremism and send Denise Powell to Congress to be an independent voice for NE-02.”
Key Debate Moments:
- Brinker said he thinks the “economy is doing well” while working Nebraskans struggle to make ends meet
- Brinker failed to name a single Trump policy he disagreed with
- Denise Powell closed the debate by telling the stories of Nebraskans she met on the campaign trail:
- Young Nebraskans who have had their health care costs increase by more than 2000%;
- Nebraska seniors who have had to take on work because they’re struggling to pay for their health care and housing;
- Young Nebraska families who have had to go without health insurance all together because it was just too expensive.
