| In new reporting from Roll Call, Derrick Van Orden claims that Americans who oppose data centers are being paid by Chinese companies.
Roll Call reports Van Orden claimed that “Chinese companies” are “paying people to say this stuff.”
DCCC Spokesperson Katie Smith:
“Just because Derrick Van Orden can’t think for himself doesn’t mean regular Wisconsin voters have the same problem. Once again, he has zero respect for the people he represents and they’ll fire him this November.”
