Washington D.C. – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Joe Gruters released the following statement on the VA-01 primary:
“Shannon Taylor is a champion for the radical left's soft-on-crime agenda, and her record of putting criminals first, embracing insane policies, and making Virginia less safe proves she’s unfit for office. Congressman Rob Wittman has always fought to keep Virginians safe, and voters trust him to continue fighting for them.”
Shannon Taylor:
Was coronated by Democrat insiders in DC.
Is a radical progressive prosecutor who let criminals off easy, including a nurse who abused nine premature babies.
Pushed soft-on-crime policies like ending mandatory minimum sentences and eliminating cash bail.
Supports men in women’s sports and locker rooms, gender mutilation surgery for minors, and DEI.
