Corrupt former congressman endorses Rudy Salas

In case you missed it, Rudy Salas was endorsed by corrupt former Congressman TJ Cox today, stating he was “honored” to have Cox’s support because the Central Valley is “better off as a result of his service.”

The reality is Central Valley residents didn’t feel they were better off because of Cox’s service. That’s why he lost. 

Cox is a notorious tax cheat, scammed investors and Fresno taxpayers out of thousands of dollars, and put elderly seniors in nursing homes at risk. 

Why is Salas touting Cox’s endorsement instead of running in the other direction? 

NRCC COMMENT: “TJ Cox spent years scamming Central Valley residents and now Rudy Salas wants to lavish praise on him. Salas cares more about his political ambition than the Central Valley.” — NRCC Spokeswoman Torunn Sinclair
