NRCC Releases New Ad Calling on Matt Cartwright to Stand Up to Democrats’ Anti-Police Platform

April 26, 2021

The NRCC released a new paid digital ad today calling on Matt Cartwright to stand up to Democrats’ efforts to defund the police.  

NRCC Comment: “Matt Cartwright was silent when Rashida Tlaib demanded an end to policing and incarceration, and even voted against censuring Maxine Waters for encouraging anti-law enforcement protestors to engage in violence. Pennsylvania voters can’t trust Cartwright to stand with law enforcement and keep them safe.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Samantha Bullock  

Background: 

Michigan Democrat Representative Rashida Tlaib called for an end to policing and incarceration and California Democrat Representative Maxine Waters called for protestors to get “more confrontational.”  

Matt Cartwright voted to kill a resolution censuring Representative Waters for her widely-condemned remarks.
