Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee Communications Director Eric Schultz released a statement today regarding reports that Dan Coats is weighing a Senate bid in Indiana. Here’s the full text:
“Dan Coats is a federally registered lobbyist whose client lists include banks, private equity firms, and defense contractors. Coats is a Washington DC insider who lined his own pockets as taxpayers spent $700 billion bailing out Wall Street banks. Indianans won’t ignore Dan Coats’ decade as a lobbyist working the system to gain special favors for the banking industry at the time of financial collapse and at the expense of working Americans.”
