Statement from Alessandra Biaggi on Opponent Sean Patrick Maloney’s Investments in Far-Right Republicans.

“Maloney is wasting valuable Democratic resources by investing in far-right Republicans instead of funding Democratic candidates”

“Maloney would rather take dangerous risks in GOP primaries than invest in working class champions”

WESTCHESTER, NY - In response to the latest report that Sean Patrick Maloney's DCCC is investing in pro-Trump Republican candidate - https://www.politico.com/news/2022/07/25/house-dems-meijer-gop-primary-00047750?nname=playbook&nid=0000014f-1646-d88f-a1cf-5f46b7bd0000&nrid=0789bbeb-adff-4daa-b47d-8c4f5b091653&nlid=630318 John Gibbs, and recent reports that the DCCC and aligned organizations have spent nearly $44 million to boost far-right candidates - https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2022/07/democrats-spend-millions-on-republican-primaries/,

Democratic Congressional candidate for NY-17 Alessandra Biaggi issued the following statement:

“DCCC Chair Sean Patrick Maloney is wasting valuable Democratic resources by investing in far-right Republicans instead of funding Democratic candidates. This is a dangerous investment and asymmetric risk. Just a few years ago, many Democrats also wrongly believed Donald Trump winning the Republican primary would ensure a Democratic Presidential victory — and they were sorely mistaken.

“Democrats win when we invest in candidates who put working people ahead of corporate donors. Unfortunately, Sean Patrick Maloney would rather take dangerous risks in Republican primaries than invest in working class champions. Maloney's latest GOP investments are just one more sign that we need new bold Democrats in Congress who will put working people first.”
