MADISON - Tuesday, Senator Melissa Agard (D-Madison) responded to the continued Republican attacks on our democracy after it announced that the Assembly Committee on Campaigns and Elections would be continuing to investigate the 2020 elections.
“These fairytales Republicans have created about the 2020 election are 100% fantasy. And while these conspiracy theories are embarrassing for our state and those legislators that continue to perpetuate them, we must call them out because they are also dangerous to our democratic institutions. Our elections officials and local clerks perform admirable work every election, but especially in 2020 in the midst of a global pandemic. “Remember, the Republicans that are calling into question the results from November were elected on the exact same ballots that they are challenging. That should tell you everything you need to know about how disingenuous these Republican investigations are. This is a cynical, bad faith, harmful, political action.” |
