In response to Scott Colom’s historic election to the U.S. Senate, DNC Chair Ken Martin released the following statement:
“Congratulations to Scott Colom, the Mississippi Democratic Party, and all of the organizers throughout the state who did the hard work to flip this seat from red to blue and make history by electing a Mississippi Democrat to the U.S. Senate for the first time in more than four decades. As a skilled prosecutor, proven judge, and accomplished district attorney, Scott has a track record of standing up for his neighbors and fighting for working families. In the Senate, he will be a reliable champion for lowering grocery and gas prices, expanding access to healthcare, making housing and childcare more affordable, investing in rural communities, and putting working people first.”
