“These candidates have earned a spot in this competitive program by being on offense and working tirelessly to hold Republicans accountable for repeatedly choosing Millionaires over Medicare,” said DCCC Chairman Steve Israel. “As long as Republicans have the wrong priorities for the middle class, they’re going to be unable to defend themselves against these top tier Democratic candidates who have put control of the House in play.”
