John Gibbs Backs Out Of Debate, Trying To Hide His Extreme Agenda From The Public

Last week, John Gibbs backed out of his commitment to attend a debate scheduled for today in MI-03, no doubt afraid of how deeply unpopular his extreme agenda really is with West Michigan voters.

While 80% of Michiganders believe abortion should be legal in cases of rape or incest, Gibbs is “100% pro-life in all cases” and wants to ban abortion with no exceptions. Gibbs repeatedly pushed the Big Lie that the election was stolen and downplayed the deadly violence at the Capitol on January 6th. And Gibbs has made clear he would come after Social Security, threatening the benefits West Michigan seniors have earned.

DCCC Spokesperson Matt Corridoni
“Gibbs’ radical, out-of-touch agenda is dangerous for West Michigan, and desperately backing out of a debate at the last minute is proof that he’s afraid to own up to his extreme positions. Voters will reject Gibbs’ extremism in November and send Hillary Scholten to Congress because she will honor her commitments to West Michigan.”
