After spending the last year exploring whether we can successfully challenge Scott Garrett, I've decided to run. This is a fight we can win. Garrett is too extreme, too disconnected to the people he represents. |
Cabinet officers don't live in a vacuum. Just because they had business dealings with someone in the past does not mean they cannot serve in an ethical way. Charles Kushner is not getting any special treatment. |
I really believe that Scott Garrett represents all that is wrong in American politics. This is a fight we can win. |
I've been planning to declare my candidacy for a few weeks, and her action did not affect my decision. I hope and expect we can come together as a party and community. |
Scott Garrett has been AWOL on this issue. It's not good enough to show up for photo ops and state the obvious. |
