Missouri Attorney General Josh Hawley’s U.S. Senate campaign is launching a new statewide tour: the Stop Schumer, Fire Claire Tour. Hawley issued the following statement:
“Control of the U.S. Senate is going to come down to Missouri. We have the ability to decide if we want the radical, left-wing agenda of Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer to control Washington, or if we want new leadership that will support the President in his mission to get things done for our state and our country.
“We already know which side Claire McCaskill is on. Look no further than her decision to vote no on yet another Supreme Court nominee under President Trump. That’s exactly what Chuck Schumer and Nancy Pelosi wanted her to do all along. On judges, tax cuts, protecting the border, and the list goes on – Claire McCaskill is wrong every single time.
“For over a decade now, Senator Claire McCaskill has drifted away from Missouri. She flies over us in her private plane, from family vacations with Chuck Schumer, to Hollywood fundraisers with Barack Obama, to her luxury condo in D.C. Claire McCaskill is just another Washington liberal fighting for the Pelosi-Schumer agenda now, and Missouri is ready to do something about it in November.”
With less than 45 days until Election Day, the Stop Schumer, Fire Claire Tour will cross all corners of the state starting Monday in Jefferson County.
