NRCC Statement on Annie Kuster Retirement

If you are covering the news that Rep. Annie Kuster in NH-02 is the 27^th House Democrat to not seek reelection, please consider the following statement from the National Republican Congressional Committee: 

“Yet another extreme House Democrat does not want anything to do with running on the same ballot with failure Joe Biden. Add her to the ever growing list of Democrats fleeing for the exits rather than defend a broken border, rising gas prices and slow economy.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Savannah Viar 

Background:   

• Democrats outnumber Republicans in those not seeking re-election. 
• Texas Department of Public Safety said ignoring the border crisis is “real life threat[s].” 
• Inflation is expected to continue.
