Tonight, Matt Gunderson will be touting support from far-right Speaker Mike Johnson by campaigning with him at a high-dollar fundraiser in Newport Beach.
This comes as no surprise, given Gunderson has already tied himself to Johnson and Donald Trump’s MAGA agenda, including opposing a measure to enshrine abortion in California’s state constitution which was overwhelmingly supported by voters in California’s 49th district.
While Johnson’s lack of fundraising and campaigning acumen is posing a problem for California Republicans, Gunderson is more than happy to schmooze and fundraise with the extremist speaker.
DCCC Spokesperson Dan Gottlieb:
“Matt Gunderson is showing North County San Diego and South Orange County exactly who he is and what agenda he supports by campaigning alongside anti-abortion extremist Mike Johnson. Gunderson can’t be trusted to stand up to MAGA extremists or Donald Trump – and voters will ensure he faces consequences this November for quickly aligning himself with these far-right leaders.”
