NRCC Statement on Mary Peltola’s Campaign Announcement
January 22, 2024
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) released a statement on Mary Peltola’s campaign announcement:
“Mary Peltola is trying to pull a bait-and-switch pretending to be moderate when she’s really an extreme Democrat partisan. Vote after vote, Peltola has empowered Joe Biden and out-of-state liberals’ extreme anti-Alaska agenda. That’s why Alaskans will elect a strong Republican fighter for Alaska this November.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen
Background:
Mary Peltola has repeatedly taken extreme far-left positions at odds with Alaskans, including:
- Voting for lower penalties for violent crime
- Voting against Alaska veterans’ benefits and voting against a military pay raise
- Voting against funding for Alaska infrastructure
