| Lobbyist and carpetbagger Joe Mitchell is out with a new ad misleading Iowa voters about his record as a political insider, career politician, and lobbyist.
GET THE FACTS:
- Mitchell left office and started running a lobbying firm to advocate for real estate developers like himself, spending tens of thousands of dollars on lobbying efforts to advance his interests.
- Mitchell spent more than $75,000 in campaign cash at Mar-a-Lago, more than “any other Republican running for Congress this cycle,” because he cares more about partying with elite politicians than working for Iowans.
- Mitchell changed his voter registration to IA-02 just one week before launching his campaign for Congress, and he’s faced accusations of misrepresenting his residency to illegally receive a tax break.
DCCC Spokesperson Katie Smith:
“Joe Mitchell is a liar and a fraud who left office, entered the revolving door of lobbying, and has put himself before Iowans at every opportunity. While Joe Mitchell puts himself and his rich friends first, Lindsay James will be the fighter Iowans deserve to tackle political corruption and lower costs for hardworking families.” |
