In response to Vice President Mike Pence’s PAC, Great America Committee, contributing to the campaign of Dino Rossi in his bid for Washington’s 8^th Congressional District, DNC spokesperson Vedant Patel released the following statement:

“Failed perennial Republican candidate Dino Rossi has hit the conservative jackpot this month. Not only did he earn an endorsement from the far right-wing Club For Growth PAC, but he was also rewarded with a highly coveted PAC check from Vice President Mike Pence. From proposing an elimination in health care coverage for 40,000 Washington children to cozying up to the extreme right-wing agenda of Mike Pence and the Club For Growth, it’s abundantly clear that Dino Rossi is ready to trample all over Washington’s working families. Democrats and grassroots activists across the state will continue to hold accountable Trump, Pence, Rossi and any other members of the GOP who have sold out the American people and betrayed working families in order to line the pockets of billionaires and corporations.”
